School seeks court order that could see suspended teacher Enoch Burke jailed

Court hears Mayo teacher who opposes calling student ‘they’ has breached terms of a temporary injunction preventing him from attending or teaching at Wilson’s Hospital SchoolAodhan O’FaolainA teacher who objects to addressing a student with the pronoun “they” has breached the terms of a temporary injunction preventing him from attending or teaching at the secondary school where he is employed, the High Court has heard.

On Tuesday the school Board of Management secured a temporary, ex parte, High Court order against Mr Burke preventing him from attending or teaching any classes at the school. However, the board, represented by Rosemary Mallon BL instructed by Ian O’Herlihy of Mason Hayes and Curran solicitors, returned to the court on Thursday and told Ms Justice Miriam O’Regan that Mr Burke has breached the terms of the injunction.

Counsel said the school’s sole objective from bringing the proceedings, which it had not done lightly, was to prevent any further disruption. The school claims that despite its decision to suspend him, made at what counsel said was “a difficult meeting he attended with his sister Ammi earlier this month, he has attended at the school’s campus in recent days.The disciplinary process arose after the teacher objected to a request by the school, based on a request from a student and their parents, earlier this year to address a student, who wishes to transition, by a different name and to use the pronoun ‘they’ going forward.

Oh dear. Maybe the sort who'd rather a spell in Sing Sing than abide by an IEHC order.

Jail the nutjob

Clown country...

Beyond a joke!

Jailed for not playing along with the mentally ill who want to force their weird ideology onto everyone else.

Why? When you stand for nothing you fall for pronoun nonsense. Salute to Enoch.

People need to read the article. He was suspended following allegations of several incidents of disruptive behaviour at school events, not for his beliefs.
