I dont see a problem with people wearing religious symbols. It happens in adult life so why shouldn't it happen in schools.

Talking about religious beliefs in schools, which is prompted by religious symbols, can only be a positive thing, leading to communication and better understanding of different religions/people

I absolutely think it is right!!!
She is allowed to wear it!
It is a religious buildings, like the crucifix, and any other religious symbol or outfit of item that people wear to represent their belief.

School take the mick with children - their beliefs are just as strong as an adults, who i'm sure would never be asked to remove a religious item!

Hmm I think interesting that on the same page there is this article and picture of the queen wearing an arabic style headscarf and has removed her shoes.. http://news.sky.com/skynews/Home/The-Queen-Vis its-a-Sikh-Temple-in-Hounslow/Media-Gallery/20 041031155692?lpos=Home_2&lid=GALLERY_1155692_T he%2BQueen%2BVisits%2Ba%2BSikh%2BTemple%2Bin%2 BHounslow

So it's like respect for their rules, systems, beliefs and culture so why not respect for our rules, systems beliefs in this here what use to be English culture.. I think the only point to be made is that this county is multicultural and as much as the englsih would like to hold on to their traditions, customs and cultures it's impossible.

on the flip side:

"The school's policy prohibits any jewellery other than a wrist watch and plain ear studs."

...so no ones allowed a crucifix either - I don't think this has anything to do with religion, does anyone else?

The school handled it inappropriately and the ruling was right.
