Templeogue College principal branded ‘corridor angel and office devil’ by ex-teacher at workplace tribunal

Templeogue College in Dublin

A teacher who quit the prestigious Templeogue College in south Dublin after accusing its principal of retaliating against her for putting her name to a collective staff grievance has called her ex-boss “a corridor angel and an office devil”.

Jennifer Clancy, a former part-time Spanish teacher at the Spritan-run south Dublin boys’ secondary school, concluded her testimony yesterday, her third day giving evidence to the Workplace Relations Commission on statutory complaints in which she has alleged whistleblower penalisation over a grievance lodged by a group of 11 school staff in the spring of 2022.
