The House of Lords overturned the Court of Appeal's verdict, that a school which had already bent over backwards to be as inclusive as possible about crazy foreign dress "requirements" had been unlawful in excluding a pupil for failing to adhere to their uniform policy.
The school had a uniform policy which allowed (the 79% of the pupils at the school who are) Muslims (and anyone else for that matter, I think) to wear shalwar kameez to cover themselves sufficiently modestly. But the girl insisted that that was insufficient for the demands of her religion. The religion of tolerance and equality.
Well, ya know what? The uniform policy was made explicit and clear before her parents sent her to that school. At any point they could have chosen to send her somewhere else. But no. They had to create a problem for a school they should have been lauding for their inclusiveness.
