The teacher at a Westmeath school was dismissed yesterday, following a disciplinary meeting.
The disciplinary process involving Enoch Burke is likely to continue - despite the teacher being sacked from his job.
He was formally dismissed from Wilson's Hospital School in County Westmeath yesterday, following a disciplinary meeting, and has 10 days to appeal the decision.
