Lydia Playfoot, 16, claimed the ban imposed by the Millais School in Horsham, West Sussex, was an "unlawful interference" with her right to express her faith.

But lawyers for the school successfully argued that the purity ring was not an essential part of the Christian religion and contravened the school's uniform policy.

Lydia said she was "very disappointed" by the High court's decision.

"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," she said.

Lydia was one of a group of Christians at the Millais School who wore the ring as a sign of their belief in abstinence from sex until marriage.

omg thats awful! Not being able to wear a RING?? What has happened to our world?

It just seems to get worse in schools. They don't realize that if they allow God in the schools alot of the problems with kids will get better.

True True True!


I am grateful my kids pray every morning before school. All schools do this, outside, rain or shine....and no school is opened with out it being blessed with holy water, and the holy water "Flung" at the kids.


When I came here, I mocked it, I hated it, then GOD woke me up big time...and now, I am so grateful!!!!!!!!! And believe me, they are trying to cut that out too. Plus, from I think it is 3rd grade on, it is mandatory to learn Christianity. amen for that!
