GV Gloucester High School for Girls (file photo). A transgender teen who was born a girl is now living as a boy – while remaining at a top all-GIRLS school. See swns story SWTRANS. Brave Jordan Morgan, 13, was born a girl called Elizabeth or Beth but last year told his mother Diane he was not comfortable living as a female. Now, with the support of his mother, teachers and fellow pupils he is attending Gloucester High School for Girls – one of Britain’s top grammar schools – as a boy. Jordan is the only ‘male’ out of more than 550 girls in the pre-sixth form at the high-achieving, selective school. Teachers and classmates are using his chosen name and he is campaigning for a change in the rules so he can wear trousers instead of a skirt. Plucky Jordan said he hoped he would inspire other transgender teens to follow his example.
