The House of Lords allowed Denbigh High School’s appeal in Shabina Begum’s challenge over wearing a jilbab. The school already permitted a headscarf with its approved uniform; the dispute concerned a different form of dress and the application of religious-freedom and education rights. The decision was a setback for Begum, not a nationwide prohibition of the hijab. It illustrates the contested boundaries of Muslim girls’ autonomy within public education.
