A furious mum has called out a Nottingham school for its "outdated policies" after her son was ordered into isolation over his new haircut. Kirsty Sabin, 37, said her 14-year-old son went to the local barbers in Bulwell and chose to have a "simple, short haircut with a single shaved line on the side".
Ms Sabin, a nurse in Bulwell, said the haircut "boosted my son's confidence". But when the teenager turned up to school the next day on Wednesday (December 7), he was told he would be sent into isolation due to his new hairstyle.
Speaking of her anger to the Nottingham Post, the mum labelled Bulwell Academy' s policy as "ridiculous". A spokesperson from the school said its uniform policy had "been in place for a number of years and makes clear that shaved patterns and unnatural hair colouring are not allowed".
