Council: School 'acting appropriately' in removing boy

Pembrokeshire County Council has said Milford Haven School "is acting appropriately" in removing a schoolboy from lessons, after he shaved his head for charity, as school policy had been "disregarded."

School policy is set by a school’s Governing Body and implemented by the Headteacher and school staff.

When this policy is disregarded by a pupil – and in this instance the policy has been clearly communicated to the pupil concerned - the school is acting appropriately in enforcing its policy.
