A mother spent the day outside a Cork special school after her son was refused entry on Monday morning when it reopened after being closed for over a week.

Fiona O’Leary from Killeens said her son, who turned 11 on Sunday, was refused entry when she went to drop him off at Carrigaline Community Special School at around 9.45am.
