The Board of Governors of the International School, University of Ibadan, Oyo State, has decided that the dress code of the school will be maintained.
The board, which came out with this after a meeting presided over by Prof. Adeyinka Aderinto, on Wednesday, stated that the management had the right to enforce the dress code that was contained in the rules and regulations of the school.
The board urged parents to abide by the rules of the school to enable the institution to fulfil its mandate of providing sound education for the pupils.
The old student’s association of the school also said that the controversy over the wearing of hijab should be viewed through the lens of principles and laws governing the institution and not through the lens of religion.
