CBC Leaving Cert students banished over pranks

SEVERAL Leaving Certificate students in one of Cork’s top fee-paying schools have been told to stay away from class until their exams start after a series of pre-exam pranks.

The disciplinary action followed incidents involving a group of students from Christian Brothers College (CBC) for boys and Scoil Mhuire Secondary School for girls, both of which are located within yards of each other off Cork’s leafy Wellington Road.

The incidents involved a “kidnapping” and an egg attack.
