Clondalkin student leader threatened with expulsion over walkout

Approx 100 students from two secondary schools in Clondalkin (Coláiste Bríde and Moyle Park College) took part in a walk out on budget day against the cut backs in education and increased college fees.

The students gathered in front of the office of John Curran TD in Clondalkin village and got a lot of support from passing cars and pedestrians.

Since then, Shane Donnelly, one of the leaders of the walk out has been suspended from school pending a board of management meeting later this week which will discuss and decide on his expulsion.
