long haired student at court

The principal of St John's college has suspended year 12 Lucan Battison, because he refused to cut his hair. The new Principal, Paul Melloy, called Lucan's hair 'boffy' and told him to cut it but Lucan refused to and has taken this issue to court.  The school rule states that hair must be over the collar and out of the eyes, but Lucan's hair is just over the collar.  Lucan won his case and will be attending St John's next month.  Although Lucan won his case Mr Melloy says that it could be "harmful and dangerous" to other pupils who thought this action was cool.
