The High Court hears that a Teaching Council inquiry into allegations against jailed teacher Enoch Burke is set to be postponed. According to court reporting, the process is delayed as the Teaching Council agrees to accommodate “preliminary applications” that Burke may seek to make. The judge also addresses Burke’s position during the proceedings, responding to his demand for how the hearing should proceed. The reporting characterizes the exchange as involving prolonged and repetitive submissions, with the judge telling Burke he will not comply with his demand. The court action focuses on procedural arrangements rather than a determination of the underlying allegations at this stage. The sources indicate the Teaching Council and the court are coordinating timing to allow for preliminary issues to be raised before the inquiry advances. The next steps involve the handling of any applications Burke brings, and the scheduling of the inquiry hearing thereafter.
