Email andrew.gardnr@gmail.com The family were struck by tragedy four years ago when the year 11 pupil's father passed away from bacterial meningitis. Now, in his memory, she always wears a bracelet gifted to her by her late dad. But the shocked student was ordered to remove it. The incident has caused Hayley so much distress that her mum, Shereen Bouwer, has pulled her out of school. Hayley, who is diagnosed with Autism, also wears a fidget ring to prevent her from picking at her skin - which similarly had to be taken off. Fuming mum, Shereen, told The Argus her daughter is usually taken to a separate classroom when she arrives at school to help with her fear of big crowds. 'But on Monday, she was taken to the school hall where all other students were having their uniform inspected," Shereen continued. Hayley claimed a staff member said she would be allowed to wear the ring on a necklace if it was covered by her shirt. 'How is she supposed to wear the ring under her shirt and tie? It doesn't make sense,' added Shereen. Erin, Hayley's sister, also has her own sentimental bracelet and was likewise ordered to remove it. The confused parent claimed her children had been allowed to wear the jewellery in previous years. In fear of confrontation, both pupils followed the rules and were told "well done for making the correct decision", according to Shereen. A terrified Hayley said: 'It made me feel bad, like I had done something wrong. 'I was scared and anxious. I trusted my teacher a lot but they too){kind=link}
