File "B" for Bonkers: Disabled British Girl Takes Up Too Much Space

A disabled girl aged 11 has been rejected by one of London's top academies because she "takes up too much space" in her wheelchair.

High-achieving Harris City Academy Crystal Palace said Idayah Miller could not be allowed to join as she would "restrict the movement of other children" in corridors and presented a "health and safety risk".

"We take students of all abilities here so that is not an issue. We are just concerned about her safety. We are saying to the parents, 'Do you really want your child to be a safety risk to others?'".
