Sexually harassed teacher answers pleas for help from fellow victims

A TEACHER who won a landmark case after she was harassed by pupils in an all-boys school has been inundated with calls from others suffering a similar fate.

Sinead Murray, 29, was one of two female teachers who was sexually harassed by pupils in De La Salle College in Wicklow. Students wrote sexually explicit comments about Ms Murray in their copy books. Sexually suggestive graffiti was also scrawled on the school walls.

She and an un-named colleague were also groped in the corridor by unruly pupils. However, when she complained to school bosses, she was labelled a troublemaker and her weekly hours were slashed from 21 to five.
