Union accused of lack of support

The INTO leadership was accused of not giving enough support to the campaign against cuts in small rural schools.

Delegate Pádraig Ó Súilleabháin, Beara, Co Cork, said he was very disappointed with the response from the union’s central executive committee to the Save Our Schools (SOS) campaign.

While the campaign was well organised in local communities, there was not enough support from the committee for a national campaign, he said.
