Malawi Court Orders Schools to Allow Dreadlocks 

A high court in Malawi has ordered education authorities to admit learners with dreadlocks in public schools across the country. <br />The court, sitting in the eastern city of Zomba, was ruling on a petition brought by two Rastafarian children who were refused admission in public schools in 2016 and 2010. <br />The two learners have, however, been attending school after they obtained a court injunction. <br />Judge Zione Ntaba ruled that barring children with dreadlocks from attending school was a breach of their right to education.
