Enoch Burke seeks to stop new DAP hearing and overturn injunction keeping him away from school
The Court of Appeal this morning heard arguments about why two High Court judgements against Burke from 2023 should be overturned.
The judgments found that Burke's original suspension was fair, and required him to stay away from the grounds of Wilson's Hospital School.
A new meeting of the disciplinary panel into whether Burke's sacking was fair is due to take place on Friday.
