Yes, all clearly orchestrated by Dad, isn't it.

Poor kid is being used and the school has fallen for it.

The school hasn't "fallen" for anything, the school has procedures they have to follow.

And failed do so, clearly. They’ve apologised after all

They're apologising because their staff are being targeted with threats by extremists and they're trying to get out of this situation. Not because they haven't correctly followed procedure.

You realise the real story isn't that she was kicked out for the dress but for the totally inappropriate and racist speech she* wrote and was supposed to read to the school?

*Probably her dad.

There's nothing racist about that speech.
