I'm anti-MHL so if that was my daughter's school I'd be kicking up a stink about.
Teachers are great/undervalued/underpaid/etc, but that doesn't give them the right to make up arbitrary rules about things beyond their remit.
[EDIT] And, to be clear, I'd have no problem if my daughter was required to wear a helmet at a track session. The risk profiles are completely different. I, personally, do not think anyone should be forced to wear a helmet for on-road cycling (leisure/commuting/etc).
