AN UP and coming girl band, which featured on the X Factor are set to visit a Dudley primary school.

The Ultra Girls - made up of Lucy, aged 21, 23 year-old Lauren, Amy, aged 27 and 22 year-old Laura - will be visiting Priory Primary School on January 17.

The girls' story began in 2008 when they met as dancers for Leeds Rhinos rugby club and formed Project A.

The band entered the 2009 series of X Factor and made it all the way to judge Louis Walsh's house, where they left the competition.

Undeterred and with a change of name, the Ultra Girls are getting set to launch their debut single 'Girls will be Girls' and are embarking on a tour of UK schools over the next few weeks.
