A requirement that a school child be re-instated in school after exclusion, was a requirement of re-admission to the school, not full re-admission into classes. Re-instatement was not to be given any elaborate meaning. Things could not always be out back just as they were, and provided the child was being educated in the school, it could not be said that she was still excluded. However a blanket refusal by teaching unions and their members to teach the child bordered on irrational.
