Cork students drive tractors to school amid bus controversy

Friends commute 34km in tractors to school in Fermoy each day

This year, 20 children in Glenville failed to secure a bus place since the introduction of free school transport.

Two Cork students have been forced to drive tractors to school after they failed to secure tickets for the school bus.

Friends Donal Sheehan and Ciaran O’Leary have been commuting 34km in their tractors from Glenville to their secondary school in Fermoy every day.
