Enoch Burke placed on leave by school over nature of his protests, court told

The deputy principal of Wilson’s Hospital School has said a key concern from the board of management when placing Enoch Burke on administrative leave was “what form” his “next protest” might take.

John Galligan told the High Court there was “alarm” and “worry” heading into the new school year last August, and this came after it was furnished with a report from outgoing principal Niamh McShane relating to a number of incidents.
