Muslim student loses prayer ban challenge at ‘Britain’s strictest school'

A Muslim student at a school brought a court case challenging the school’s ban on prayer rituals on school grounds, which it implemented last year A Muslim pupil has lost a High Court challenge against a ban on prayer rituals at a high-achieving north London school previously dubbed Britain’s strictest.

The judge upheld the student’s challenge to a decision to temporarily exclude her from the school. Lawyers for the pupil told the judge at a hearing in January that she was making a ‘modest’ request to be allowed to pray for around five minutes at lunch time, on dates when faith rules required it, but not during lessons.
