Should this girl have won her case and been allowed to wear a chastity ring to school?

A 16-year-old girl was not discriminated against when she was banned from wearing a 'purity ring' in school, the High Court has ruled. Lydia Playfoot was told by Millais School in Horsham, West Sussex, to remove her ring - which symbolises chastity - or face expulsion. The school had denied breaching her human rights and said it was 'delighted' with the outcome. Miss Playfoot said she was 'very disappointed' by the decision. She said the ruling would 'mean that slowly, over time, people such as school governors, employers, political organisations and others will be allowed to stop Christians from publicly expressing and practising their faith'.
