Under school disciplinary procedures Burke is entitled to appeal within 10 working days

The principal informed Mr Burke that the ethos of the school was inclusive and the right of individuals to be called by a name of their choosing and in accordance with their preferred gender was a recognised right set out in the Equal Status Act.

The school further asserted that,at a dinner later that day he approached the principal and again asked her to withdraw the request. The school stated that the principal told Mr Burke that she would speak to him at an appropriate time and walked away, but Mr Burke followed her and continued to question her loudly, and that other people in attendance stood between them to bring an end to the confrontation.

What propelled the case into the full glare of the media was his jailing for contempt of court in early September because he continued to attend the school despite orders restraining him from doing so. He was eventually released on an open-ended basis on December 21st last, without having purged his contempt.

Legal counsel for the school told the High Court last week that the school had a genuine concern about interactions and disruptions that could occur as a result of Mr Burke’s continued attendance. The school said it was seeking sequestration of his assets or to have him fined. It did not favour him being again committed to prison as it was undesirable to commit a person who had no intention of obeying a court order.

We all knew that... burke has dug a hole he can't get out of and with a driving force like his mammy they will still bully kids. the teachers and Bom VOLENTEERS..the only ones to come out of this badly are the burkes thanks to his mammy her kids are now unemployable 🤷‍♂️

Interesting that the school committee did not issue a public statement about the grounds for terminating Mr.Burkes employment. Contract clause etc

YES. HA HA HA… YES!

Just makes Ireland look like a joke of a country

Oh please stop

IS THAT 10 HIS NON WORKING DAYS OR NORMAL WORKING DAYS

I want to see him crushed to nothing.

I can see extremely litigious people being called 'Enochs' in future!!

Breaking... Louis Theroux has reviewed my suggestion to meet this family & asked, am I insane 😁

Psychological warfare to beat the teachers into line so they wilfully teach children pornography and transgender ideology. Strange how all these issues are in sync all over the west.

The amount of coverage our media are giving this story is surprising almost like they are treating the Burke family as a pantomime act for clickbait

Who is paying for all this legal actions.?

Burke family says Enoch Burke formally dismissed from teaching roleHe was told of the school’s decision this afternoon. I am shocked.... lol! 😆 Unbelievable and sad There was no way they could continue employing him. I very much doubt any school would employ him after this. At his disciplinary hearing his mother, sister and brother turned up, shouting and arguing. Gardai had to be called twice. 🙄

Enoch Burke arrives for school disciplinary hearingEnoch Burke has arrived at a hotel in Mullingar, to attend a disciplinary hearing in relation to his employment at a school in Co Westmeath. I wish RTÉ would get it right. His transphobia may have been a motivating factor in his behaviour, but it is his behaviour at church and at a social event following, not his motives, that are the subject of the hearing. Seriously hope this guy gets sacked for his aggressive behavior towards his colleagues which is what this hearing is about, it will be a bonus to the kids he did teach if he does get sacked. What person in their right mind would want their children around such a hateful person. If the twat is sacked, as is likely, what excuse will he use then for trespassing on school property.
