A well-regarded Dublin music college has been accused of "aggressively" moving towards mass redundancies and cost-cutting after benefiting from the public funding system.

The first in a series of strikes at Dublin's British and Irish Modern Music Institute (BIMM Institute) got underway on Monday, with the actions set to continue Tuesday, Saturday and again into next week.
