A teacher will go to the top of the class in the eyes of the boys in her classroom if she achieves catwalk success.

Harleen Sidhu, aged 25, teaches at Kings Heath Boys’ School.

But the classroom won’t be her focus on Sunday night when she competes against 14 other girls in the Miss Birmingham Great Britain pageant at the city’s Park Regis Hotel. And she is a Miss with a mission.

For she hopes that more British Asian women will follow her example.

Former Aston University student Harleen leads a busy life, for as well as teaching she is completing an acting course and has done work for several charities including Diabetes UK and the British Red Cross. She is currently raising money for the Queen Elizabeth Hospital Charity.
