[@cheendo7400]

@@anaxikay5448 Personally I don’t think any sane person will use the white person argument because no African is born with dreadlocks and so are whites, and so if a white person is carrying dreadlocks and he is not under any exchange program, he/she must face the same rules.

[@lifeinthecountrysidehome]

I have dreadlocks so I clearly understand being discriminated against. I am so saddened by your family's plight. My husband and I were summoned to school to talk with the principal about our son's dreadlocks also. Please don't give up hope, stick to what you believe in, and don't allow others to manipulate you and your family.

[@mi_art_fashion]

People are not understanding something from this situation........ I personally think the shaving of our (Ghanaians) natural hair and the grooming of foreign students' hair is bias in our education system. In the first place what was the reason behind " barber your hair for school" ?...where did it originate from? I quite remember when I was starting SHS... I had a severe medical condition of which shaving my hair could worsen the situation but NO I was forced to do so and had to live with the consequences to date. On the other hand, a Chinese- Ghanaian freshman just like me was allowed to keep her hair with the excuse that it's against her culture ( SMH). It just doesn't make sense because if all students (Ghanaian or foreign) are allowed to keep their hair and even taught how to groom and take care of their hair with strict rules and regulations, I don't think it will be a problem, especially in this 21st century. But GES says NO but still encourages the bias. It's high time they realize that shaving hair is also quite problematic especially after SHS. Think about it....with the number of female SHS students in the country, this could also create employment for native hairstylists if they are also made to follow the rules for styling SHS student natural hair.

As a result of the various achievements of certain individuals who went through our schools, the school authorities have built a certain lack of respect for anyone. This arrogance of the ones in charge of the secondary educational institutions in Ghana is despicable even to the point where they step on the rights of these young individuals. Funny enough if not annoying, they will be teaching students rights and freedoms in the classrooms meanwhile no example is being showed by them. I believe this case should be sent to court . Most SHS students - present as well as past students have been bullied by those put in authority in the various schools. I am in SHS 3 ( I wont mention the school for obvious reasons)right now and I am a witness to similar acts of arrogance and disregard of students . This dreadlocks issue is not the only stiff necked position of the people placed in charge of the schools. Why should GES give a direction and the school decide to debunk it? Clearly arrogance on the path of the school's heads and the Dictatorship of the alumni association of the school. If it were a an option D school, they would've accepted the young individual nonetheless. I believe the solution to this problem will be to set up a law that puts schools directly accountable to the government so that any student who feels his right his being infringed by the school authorities can have the confidence to report to the law enforcing agencies. This arrogance as a result of the pedigree of the school should not continue.

Then we’ll know rules are working rather than the rules favoring a certain crop of people while others suffer. As a public institution the rule should govern all. It looks as if we are easy to forget. Once upon a time a similar incident happened in adisadel college involving a Muslim student who did not show up for vespers and at the long round lost his life when the senior house master went in the dormitory hunting for students hidden in the dorm. His reason was he was a Muslim and at that point he was also using the church service to pray in the dormitory. I thought by now GES would have set rules for this. Mind you as the SDG on education make room for inclusion why are they still denied?
