No-one has the RIGHT to take an exam especially if they deliberately break pre-informed rules.

But surely wearing the wrong type of shoes isn't comparable to deathly driving? Whose lives are being put at risk by wearing those shoes? But yes you are right when you say rules ought to be followed. What I am trying to say is that if I were a teacher in that school who taught that pupil, I would be rather frustrated at the fact that the time and energy spent with the pupil on teaching the subject was completely wasted because of a rule like that, if the student isn't qualified for it then that is two years worth of his lessons wasted. So I would say an exception to the rule in this case should have been made.
Not necessarily for the pupil's sake, for the school's sake.
