“They've been making us take part in make-up checks. If they see girls with make-up on, they've been made to take it off straight away.
“It’s everything - mascara, concealer, foundation - everything. Girls with spots can’t even wear a little bit of foundation to cover them up and make themselves feel better.
“Most girls my age are feeling very self-conscious because they are going through puberty and have acne.Some girls were told they couldn't go into the canteen unless they took off their make-up - and been threatened that they could be expelled.
“There are women teachers, wearing make-up, telling girls they have to take theirs off.”

Holly says teachers have always been tough on false nails and jewellery, which students could ‘understand’, but the strict ban has now become ‘unfair’.
She added: “Make-up is not affecting people’s education. If anything, it’s distracting people because they feel self-conscious.
