Suspended teacher Enoch Burke defies court order, returns to school, faces daily fines.

Suspended schoolteacher Enoch Burke has returned to Wilson's Hospital School in Co Westmeath despite a court order and a history of contempt. Burke, who was jailed for disobeying a court order to stay away from the school, was let out of jail but faces a daily fine of €1,400 if he breaks the order again. He was dismissed from his teaching position after refusing to use a transgender student's preferred name and pronouns on religious grounds.
