Manager: School not a haven for pregnant people or mothers
The school is not named in Children’s Ombudsman Emily Logan’s report but it has been identified by the Irish Examiner as St Joseph’s College, a privately owned Catholic school with almost 300 male and female students, in Borrisoleigh, Co Tipperary.
Pádraig O’Shea, who founded the school in 1978, is its owner, manager, and patron. He was principal when the girl first applied to enrol in 2009 but the school now has a different principal. The school could not be contacted yesterday.
