>Announcing details of the sanction on Wednesday, the inquiry chairperson, Mary Magner, said the panel was also censuring the teacher as well as imposing certain conditions on the retention of his registration including that he does not take up any teaching role in future that would involve access to money or finance.
>**She said the sanction would send a message to other teachers that stealing “will not go without severe punishment.”**
One month? If this is „severe punishment“ then I need to re-appraise myself with the word ’severe‘.
F sake, he should never be allowed to teach again. Such nonsense. Public sector.
We really need to move away from teachers having such unquestioned authority, if there are issues then they should be struck off and not see it as a job for life.
He stole a €100,000 school?! That’s an impressive feat. Where’d he hide it?
What does a teacher have to do to get struck off?
Teaching council is a bit of a joke. They pretend to be a professional organisation to benefit from state protections but their obligation to maintain professional standards of their members is totally non existent.
Who here had teachers who were completely incompetent? Well they got paid the exact same as you good teachers. Also for some strange reason mediocre teachers seemed to fail upwards. They end getting positions of responsibility like year heads or vice principals
Probably in July when their off.
And people really try to act like public workers are regularly fired for poor performance.
What a joke
> The inquiry heard that the teacher, who is supported by the Teachers’ Union of Ireland….
FFS
Civics or RE teacher going forward
This headline is terrible journalism and misleading
In fairness I understand their logic. He needs to repay the money and the incident was not related to his ability to teach. He has repaid 72k already and looks like if he can keep working he’ll sort the rest over the next 3 years.
He is not a danger to children and has to attended serious therapy for his addiction. I agree with what they have done. Better that than a debt he can never repay and ultimately ending up on the street.
Edit: he also was in prison for a year and a half. He has learned a serious lesson and will never live it down. Let him try to salvage a life.
