British student with red hair claims a teacher told her to dye her hair because “orange is not a natural colour.” Paris Lane’s mother has filed a complaint with the Office for Standards in Education, Children’s Services and Skills.

In media reports, the 12-year-old said she was walking down a hall at Kearsley Academy in Bolton when the teacher made the comment. Her mother said she had bought her daughter brown dye because she’d been getting “bullied” about being a redhead. (AP)
