Stop Sir John Thursby School removing muslim girls headscarf

This is disgusting. What ever happens to him at rights.

Stop telling women what they can and can't wear...women have the right to wear what they want...let them keep their own scarfs on

Disgusting!

This absolutely disgusting and shouldn't be allowed to be continued. Put a stop to this !!!

Should be allowed to every one to wear headscarf who want to to wear because it's is the her basic right

I feel children should be allowed to wear clothing that they feel comfortable to wear. For PE I feel if it is deemed as health and safety children can be asked to remove or sign to say they are aware of the safety issues and ask parents to also comply.

Speechless!

The school should have had a meeting with parents, students and imams before designing the scarf.

Quite a shame that this has happened. I understand that girls head scarfs should be uniform. Maybe it would have been better to get the female pupils involved and all come up with a headscarf that everyone could agree on. The way this has happened has made the youngs girls feel more out of place and will definitely impact on their self esteem. Considering I read some very good things about this school in the past, my expectations have now considerably dropped.

Unreasonable and unfair demands by the school! The girls should be given a choice to wear their chosen headscarf.

This is a clear case of discrimination

I believe that everyone has the right to dress how they want and why can a nun cover herself yet a muslin women and girls can't.

I think they shouldn't been taken off because it is the childs choice as they are following their religion

Absolutely ridiculous excuse to remove headscarves, Parents and students should have been consulted.

Everyone has their own beliefs and you need to respect them

As a minimum parents full consultation should be observed by the school on such a delicate matter.

Plz do not remove the head svarf 0lz respect our community thxs

Outrageous

Disgusting! They should be allowed to wear their own headscarves, it's never been an issue before even back when we were at high school. The scarfs being introduced by the school are discomforting for the pupils! Clearly they have not taken consideration of their pupils views and opinions on this! Awful.

Horrendous, what can I say
