Former part-time teacher Jennifer Clancy has made claims of student indiscipline and alleges penalisation for role in collective grievance

The principal of Templeogue College will not appear as a witness to counter claims of indiscipline among students and allegations that she penalised a teacher for putting her name to a collective grievance about the management of the Spritan-run South Dublin boys’ secondary school.

The teacher’s barrister sharply criticised the school’s management on Friday, claiming its “tactics” in the case were an attempt to “wear down the complainant” and drive up her legal bills.

Cross-examining Ms Clancy earlier this year, the school’s barrister, Rosemary Mallon, said that Ms Quinn would tell the tribunal herself that although she found the collective grievance difficult, she “didn’t take it personally and didn’t do anything to specifically target you”.
