Last Friday a statement issued through one of Mr Burke's brothers confirmed that he had been dismissed from the school.
He had been suspended on full pay by the school as part of a disciplinary process, following a row over a request from a student to be addressed by a new name and for"they/them" pronouns to be used. A teacher may seek such a review on a number of grounds, including claims that the procedures were not adhered to, that all the relevant facts were not ascertained or considered or that the teacher concerned was not afforded a reasonable opportunity to answer the allegation.The council had written to Mr Burke expressing concern about the impact of his ongoing attendance at the school.
They also highlighted the ongoing media presence at the school, saying that it is a huge disruption and they expressed concern about the reputation of the school.
Who cares? Just fine him
Why is nobody asking who is funding this family in all their episodes of fighting with their employers? There is an awful lot of people at the moment that find their necessary journey to work a financial burden with the cost of fuel, never mind turning up when their sacked!
Tosser
He’s a first class prick
Pure attention seeker
Unfairly dismissed. They are in big trouble
Kids should egg him

Is Enoch Burke in a Union? TUIunion
If he returns tomorrow the students need to go full Old Testament and pelt him with rocks. Let they who has not sinned cast the first stone. 😉
He's seriously in need of mental health help.
He needs help.
I wonder if all those saying he is right would still agree if as an evangelical he told Roman Catholic students their Pope was the anti-Christ and they were all going to burn in hell for eternity if they didn’t renounce their religion, or if he was Muslim and did it?
RTÉ is now contributing to the disturbance of the students at the school. Stop giving this man the oxygen of media attention he wants. See how long it is before he stops his antics.
The man is clearly unwell. He needs psychiatric help rather than putting him in jail.
Can we transport him to Mongolia or somewhere so we don't have to hear about that pathetic man for another few months.
Enoch,Would you bring better weather with you the next time.
Clearly doesn't give 2 shites on wasting gardai time and upsetting and negatively effecting children's education.
Cue the nutters
He'll be there every morning and afternoon as long as the cameras are.
Stop giving this tool airtime
He's like that fly you try to get out the window but it just keeps banging his head against. Annoying, noisy and nobody wants you there.
If Irish media didn't follow every move he made his whole prison stint would have had zero effect. But now he's a political martyr for the wackjobs.
I'm not joking. I am dressing up as Enoch for trick or treating next halloween. And possible every fancy dress for the next couple of years.
Stop giving this story airtime!
Thus he treads the painful path of martyrdom
What a idiot 🙄
What an absolute pack of Clowns this family is. travellingcircus enochburke EnoughlsEnough
Jaysus, not for quitting that lad!
This man is mentally I’ll and needs to be commited to a facility. His behavior is creepy, stalkerish and down right dangerous to the general public.
Because of course he has. Straightforward trespass now.
It's rather odd when a grown man won't stay away from a school despite being told to by a court and being dismissed from the same school...
Who would have known there even was a nice Church of Ireland institution called Wilson's Hospital School if it weren't for 'wee Enoch', his unhinged family and their strange view of life.
Silly Billy
We get it RTE,Your obsession with Mr Burke is noted 🥱
So, what happens now? Is trespass a criminal matter? 🤔
Put him back in jail
I’m assuming they didn’t let him in.
Burke is taking the fight to the corrupt authorities in the school. We all must stand up to the poison that is slowly but surely contaminating our society. The silent majority are afraid to open their mouths against these thugs. God must prevail !
What a creep!
Did mammy or daddy drive him in?
Why are these people not being arrested for disturbing the peace? If they had brown skin and were waving the Koran at the school there’d be uproar, no doubt about that. It’s disgusting that they are allowed to go unchecked
Enoch Burke is a bigger story for RTE than the Riots in CityWest and the uptrend in crimes committed by non EU nationals on this Island
Would he ever just go home and leave the school and everyone in it alone. This is beyond withering now.
What a muppet
Mainstream media are giving this guy and his family exactly what they want. Paparazzi fawning over him like he was Messi.
Man what sort of cretin is this guy? Taken your religious fanaticism home to mommy
This is getting weird.
Is he looking for John Rogers
Can't understand what the man hopes to achieve turning up daily to a job he's been sacked from. They are hardly going to take him back. He's only making a show of himself.
He doesn’t even go here
Rightly or wrongly we hold teachers to a higher standard of behaviour than the rest of us what is his behaviour teaching the kids in that school? What lessons will they come away with ?
Man goes to work shocker 🙄
Weakness on the part of school management. If the press knew he was coming why weren't the Guards waiting for him. An unauthorised adult entering a school, if he was in the States he'd have been shot.
Won’t call a child by a name because it’s wrong (no it’s not) but doesn’t mind doing actual illegal stuff, wow such a martyr
Can someone explain to me why the Gardai aren't waiting at the school gate for him? Enough already. Put him on house arrest, and if he leaves his home, put him in prison.
Is he still in the school?
David Brent
The media frenzy outside the school is just as bad.
He will never work in a school in Ireland again .
You need to stop giving this lunatic airtime theyxare just seeking attention. The entire family are religious fanatics with no regard for the law nor society. They need to be jailed for harrassement.
Demented.
doing same thing and expecting different results
Shows up to a school he doesn't work in with his da - strange wee man
N'Yuck N'Yuck Burke strikes again!!
Enoch is a bottomless pit of attention seeking behaviour. Surely he is trespassing at this point?
He doesn’t know when Enoch is Enoch.
HarriettmooreB2 … and the Media do exactly what he wanted 🤦🏻♂️
It's easy WilsonHospital, this adult has no current connection to your establishment. Call the cops - gardainfo. Simple as.
Have they no locks on doors?
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 ya gotta love this guy
What a complete and utter weirdo
How do you spell 'Restraining Order'?
Good man. Take no shit from confused kids.
He’s for the birds 🤣
EmmetFreeman dedicated pro
Isn’t there a really danger to the health and welfare of the students.what happens if he flips and we end up with a columbine or sandy hook massacre”American style”
That f'kin dipstick.
He must have appealed so he is still employed until the appeal hearing
I agree with his stance that he should not be told to use fantasy pronouns, but he hasn't handled this case well, we need another teacher to stand up and and do it right,this school is Church Of Ireland and has been taken over by LGBTQ+ activists so is a lost cause.
Something weird about a grown man turning up to a school he has no business of being at
Perhaps he’s collecting his stuff?!
Number one the school had no right to remove him from his job under the constitution of Ireland number two crimes against humanity charges will be sent to media their will be a day when they hope citizen journalists will judge them with less hatered
Fair play, he did nothing wrong
He’ll be appearing on The Undateables next.
Calling John Rodgers
Ah his daddy is dropping him to school.
Creepy. I see he has to get driven in. Can the freak not even drive?
HarriettmooreB2 How can he 'attend' the school when he is no longer employed there?
Stop giving him all this attention, he’s thriving on it🤷🏻♀️
What an absolute tool 🤣🤣
Trespass not attend
It's Our Useless Government. That's Wrong Here. Can Anyone dispute. When God's Gift Of A Child Is Born. Big, Little, Or Small. It's A Boy. Or It's A Girl. Always Has Been. Always Will.Then it's up to the Parents,To Guide that child along the right Path in life.What's gone wrong
Doesn’t say much for security at that school
To the Management at Wilsons Hospital School
Hey teacher, leave those kids alone
This morning? Media are very quick to report on this Irish man but not so quick when it comes to reporting on all the migrant crime happening in our country.
Have him arrested as a trespasser and jailed - pretty sure he is being funded by right wing political groups to draw attention to beliefs which date back to the 1950s
Give it up, it's embarrassing now
Sick of hearing about this fool
I keep wondering who would be cast in the roles for the Burke family in the Netflix series. It will happen. 🤦♀️
Daddy still drives little Enoch to school? He's a 30 year old teacher, surely he should be driving himself?
What a sad pathetic individual he is.
This bucker should be put back in jail. Family of lunatics
OK. He's a trespasser. Time for alternative conflict resolution. I assume the school has one of those 'tough guy' gym teachers anxious to show the kids what's what Toe of boot applied to rectum as far as gate Let Enoch seek an injunction
Just pathetic at this stage. Should have left him Locked up and forgot about him
The question on everyone's lips this morning is, where was John Rodgers on the morning of the meeting?
Lock him up!🍿
Ah here.
Prison
Ignore him he might just go away
I'd say I don't know how he ended up like this but we've met his family. He didn't have a chance.
He must really like jail...LOL
What a complete loser this guy is
what about the students trying to study for state exams. they don’t need this distraction
Great, now he’s trespassing and will be arrested. That lad needs to cop on
This is getting beyond a joke at this stage,

Students wrote to Enoch Burke over attendance at schoolThe student council at Wilson's Hospital School in Co Westmeath wrote a letter to teacher Enoch Burke expressing concern about the impact of his ongoing attendance at the school. Thankfully he's sacked. His venom shouldn't be anywhere near students The narcissism of this entire family is mind-blowing. Not one shit do they give for the kids and families impacted by their ego-driven mission to be right, no sense whatsoever of the common good. Bitter, small-minded, vile. He/Shenoch
