To feel my daughter should be able to pray at school

My daughter aged 14 is Christian like me, though we are both reasonably liberal. She/a sibling has always prayed aloud before meals at home, and does so silently at school too. Recently we received a complait from her tutor though, saying she was not allowed to pray in the hall. I called a couple of my daughter's friends and they say they have no problem with it and that she never says anything, she is just quiet with her eyes shut for a minute. The tutor complained after she sat with my daughter and friends for lunch. Is it unreasonable to think this is unfair/discrimination? Should she have to stop?

American schools have "tutors"?

That's news to me (and I'm American)

Sounds daft IMO, its not as if she is stood on a table evangelizing. She isn't forcing her views on anyone, what harm is she doing.
