True, but it have been perfectly possible for the school to allow the boy the sit the exam. They could have given him a warning and exclude him from the next exam if he 're-offended'. I would have absolutely no problem with that.
Like others have said. I think exams are an inappropriate time to start enforcing rules strictly if this has not been done in the past.
