(Dutch News) A school in The Hague does not have to pay compensation to two Muslim sisters who missed their annual school photograph because it clashed with the end of Ramadan, appeal court judges said on Tuesday.
A lower court last year awarded the family €500, saying the school had indirectly discriminated against the children by breaching their legal right to equal treatment.
The appeal court, however, said the school had done enough to take the end of Ramadan into account by commissioning the photographer to come on what it thought was the day after Eid al-Fitr.
