That's not what the school are saying at all. What they are saying is that treatment within the school should be inclusive. A not entirely unreasonable view.
In fact it is so reasonable I'm going to remember it at my next meeting and exclude all of year 11 rather than just one. Wouldn't want the other to miss out of course.
Every child has a 'right' to be invited to a birthday party, do they?
Absolute rubbish.
I'd tell the school to fork off.

Children of friends of mine have been told (by the school) to either invite the whole class or no-one to birthday parties.
FFS!!
This is an absolute minefield. What about those hard-working families that can only afford a small party for a few close friends, and don't want to infringe the human rights of their own child to have a birthday party?
Unless... are there government grants available for hard-working families to throw children's parties? What's the booze allowance, out of interest?
Only surprise was the school happened to be in Sweden and not in Britain. Now that it's happened, expect new guidelines as to children's birthdays' invitations to be drafted into the new 'Equality' bill by Harriet Harman ie
Preference to be given to girls and children from ethnic minorities.
I hope you posted that in various european and asian languages, or else you are guilty of withholding your satire from minorities, you fascist.
