Education chief wants calm after Erin death

The head of education in Donegal has called for time to allow the community and school to recover from Erin Gallagher’s death.

Vocational Education Committee boss Sean Purcell said the community needed time away from media coverage to cope with the situation.

Erin, from Ballybofey, died by suicide 10 days ago after being bullied. She was a student at Finn Valley College.
