Dora Lacey is a student at St Clare's School. She is the twin sister of Daphne Lacey and appears in the book The Sixth Form at St Clares.

History
Dora arrives at St Clare's and fools everyone into thinking that she is the only Lacey sister at the school. However, a slip up in town causes head girls Pat and Isabel O'Sullivan to discover her deception: both her and Daphne have been at the school and have been switching places as a joke. Pat and Isabel take the twins for a scolding from Miss Theobald. Miss Roberts and Katie also scold them, which the twins take, but when Priscilla Parsons lectures them, they are defiant. Priscilla bullies Joan Terry into siding against the twins, and they turn against her. Katie reprimands the twins and advises Joan to stand up to Priscilla. The first form decide to have a midnight party to celebrate Rita's birthday, but Priscilla overhears and makes Joan tell her when and where the party is being held. Pat and Isabel suggest feeding Priscilla false information and holding the party the night before. Dora trails Priscilla on the false night and makes sure that Mam'zelle and Miss Harry find and scold her. Dora sneers at Joan afterwards. When Priscilla is expelled, Dora and Daphne are asked by the sixth form to befriend Joan.
