A fitness-to-teach inquiry against a former principal convicted of the theft of thousands of euros from funds connected to his school is to complete a further report before deciding on sanctions.
Fionbar Ó Baoill was convicted in 2018 on a number of charges relating to the theft of over €200,000 in funds connected to St Patrick’s, a 70-student primary school in Kilnaleck, Co Cavan.
