Student expelled over ‘white powder’ snorting video back in court

A Leaving Cert student expelled from a secondary school over an incident where a classmate was videoed snorting some white powder, which turned out to be sugar, is back in the High Court to mount a further legal challenge.

This week, Mr Justice Seamus Noonan was told both students, who cannot be identified for legal reasons, had also appealed the decision to expel them to the Department of Education. In his High Court proceedings against the Department of Education committee, the student wants an order quashing its decision to disallow his appeal against expulsion.He claims the committee decision was so grossly disproportionate as to be unsustainable. He also claims he had co-operated with the school, showed contrition and was willing to engage in a programme of voluntary work.
