TD’s son one of four pupils expelled for bullying teacher

The problem of students bullying teachers is another issue to be tackled in schools, according to Education Minister Ruairi Quinn.

He was commenting after it emerged that four fifth-year students have been expelled from a Dublin secondary school for running a Facebook page that carried malicious comments about at least two teachers, including remarks of a sexual nature.

One of the students expelled from Oatlands College in Stillorgan is a son of independent Wexford TD Mick Wallace.
