She looks like any other schoolgirl, freshfaced and full of life. Sarah Thomas is looking forward to the challenge of her new Alevel course. But unlike her school friends,16yearold Sarah is not spending halfterm resting. Instead, she is earning £6,500 a day as a model in New York.
Sarah has been told that she could be Britain's new supermodel, ①earning a million dollars in the new year. Her father Peter wants her to give up school to be a famous model. ②What her father said has made Sarah a little annoyed. Sarah, who has taken part in shows along with top models, wants to tell the world that she has brains as well as beauty and that she has decided to carry on with her education.
She has turned down several invitations to star at shows in order to concentrate on her studies. After school she plans to take a year off to model full time before going to university to get a degree in engineering or architecture.
Sarah says, “My dad thinks I should take the offer now. But at the moment, school comes first. I don't want to spend much of my time in modeling. It is certainly fun but the lifestyle is a little unreal. I don't want to have nothing else to fall back on when I can't model any more.”
