A TEACHER snipped off a schoolgirl's false eyelashes with a pair of scissors because they broke uniform rules.
Georgie Hill, 14, was escorted to a toilet after her lashes were deemed to be "excessive".
She was ordered to remove them but when she couldn't, a teacher cut them off with round-ended scissors.
Her mum Debbie, 43, said: "I have the utmost respect for teachers - but this is just wrong.
"I did not know they were against the uniform policy, otherwise I wouldn't have allowed her to have them."
Georgie added that she could not remove them herself because they were "individually glued on".
Kathy Leaver, principal at the Co-operative Academy in Blackley, Manchester, said: "We have a policy to keep students in school, which is why she wasn't allowed to remove the eyelashes at home."
