"A prestigious girls' school has accepted its first boy in more than 100 years, as a transgender pupil has returned to classes after the Christmas holidays.

But Jordan Morgan, 13, is still expected to wear a skirt to school, despite now living as a boy.

Jordan used to be known as Elizabeth, or Beth for short, having been designated female at birth."
