>>212780514The "school" didn't do shit. The principal would have been the one that made that decision because she (I bet it's a woman) would have had an agenda to push on behalf of the Department for Education, probably had special guests arriving at the school she wanted to impress with how "inclusive" *her* school was and saw the union jack as a mockery of her grand vision. I bet most of the other staff saw nothing wrong with it some would have emphatically supported her behind the principal's back. When she realised how badly she fucked up by forgetting what she *actually* stated rather than her deceptive agenda, she decided there was no way to double down without sounding like a complete retard and was forced to do the most embarrassing thing she could possibly bring herself to do, pretend to be sorry to a kid she'd wronged. Fuck I hate principals and the Department for Education.
