A judge has ordered teacher Enoch Burke to appear before the High Court over his alleged failure to stay away and not trespass at Wilson's Hospital School in Co Westmeath.

The school's board of management has sought orders that could see the teacher jailed for the third time due to Mr Burke's alleged ongoing refusal to comply with High Court orders requiring him to stay away from the school.
