"Jeremy Beach was the only male student at his Catholic girls' school.
He had short spiky hair, hated wearing the school's checked skirt and in Year 12, the Avila College student came out as a transgender male.
"I presented as quite masculine. I didn't fit in. I wasn't going on about boyfriends and about make-up," the 19-year-old said."

"But despite these challenges, he also received a lot of support from the Catholic school."
