Constitutional Court strikes down primary-school headscarf ban

📅 11 December 2020 📍 Oostenrijk

Austria’s Constitutional Court annulled the prohibition on head coverings in primary schools that effectively targeted Muslim girls. It found violations of equality and religious freedom and rejected the selective restriction’s claimed contribution to integration. The ruling marked a legal gain against discriminatory treatment of Muslim children, rather than a judgment on every religious-dress restriction in Austria.
