Think that's the point, the student in question chose to ignore the school rules on uniform. In doing so he placed himself at risk of being sent home during his exams, yes the teacher could have allowed him to sit the exam that morning and made sure he knew it wouldn't be tolerated for following exams but the teacher chose to enforce the rules.
Not all choices that we make in life turn out to be the right ones, accepting that we made a mistake and were at fault is a better way of dealing with the situation than complaining to the media about a situation that we created for ourselves in my opinion.
