Ummmm...When I Googled “Kara bracelet” it showed up as related to the Sikh religion.
It's unfortunate that the article didn't make the distinction that they were specific to Sikhs.....they lumped it all together in the sentence:
"Although the school allows Muslim and Sikh pupils to wear headscarves, trousers and kara bracelets as a cultural expression of their religion"
My bad...I stand corrected.
I am so very accustomed to Muslims being favored over Christians in society that I drew the wrong conclusion from the sentence.
It doesn't change the fact that the school isn't enforcing the jewelry ban consistently, however.
