Kenny: Class in toilet a disgrace

FINE GAEL leader Enda Kenny told the Dáil it was “a disgrace” that a school was forced to convert a toilet into a classroom after the Irish Examiner highlighted the situation yesterday.

Mr Kenny raised the plight of Glenville National School, Co Cork, during Leaders’ Questions — when opposition leaders get to grill the Taoiseach.

Glenville was first promised a new building more than 10 years ago, and in 2006, Education Minister Mary Hanafin wrote to the school promising work would begin with “immediate effect”.
