This school in question is a muslim faith school with rules regarding uniform. A non muslim choosing to attend the school for whatever reason will be aware of these rules at time of application.
I was reading something recently about how a lot of non muslims wish to send their children to muslim schools because of the success of students in the national curriculum subjects. Well if you want to do that fair play, but while your their you should be subject to the same rules regarding uniform.

Both my children attended a CofE junior school, which had children of other faiths (Hindu, Sikh, Muslim, Catholics) - these children (via their parents) were allowed the option of not attending CofE faith-based events - some did, some didn't.
