This is Grant Stranaghan, along with his parents he is challenging the decision of Ballyclare High school to suspend him for refusing to have his hair cut.
I can't see what point is being achieved by the wreckless use of finite educational resources by employing lawyers to argue their respective points in court. They are seeking a judicial review of the school's uniform policy.
This mess could have been sorted by the purchase of a mirror and maybe some Toni & Guy vouchers for christmas......
It seems girls can have long hair but not boys. So i guess that equals sex dexcrimination.
The irony is that after all this hassle young Stranaghan will wake up one day and realise a hairstyle might be in order...
The BBC has more here.
Update: The High Court in Belfast ruled that the pupil's rights were not breached and that the school uniform policy was NOT unlawful, the BBC has more here.
