The Principal of Davis College issued a statement to the Neil Prendeville Show on Cork's RedFM yesterday saying the "safety and wellbeing: of all the school's students is top priority.
Neil Prendeville read out the full statement as follows:
‘The safety and wellbeing of all our students is top priority". "We are taking this issue extremely seriously, and immediately took steps to address it with both the affected students and the student body at large. "This work is continuing. "The list was removed the minute we were notified of its existence, and we spoke to each of the young ladies mentioned to answer any questions or concerns that they had. “We encouraged them, as we encourage all of our students, to come to us with any issues that may be of concern, so that we can support them in any way possible. "There has been a spotlight nationally on this topic in recent weeks; in keeping with our ethos of caring for all our students, and in light of public and media conversations, we wish to make sure that this issue is addressed among all of our students, our social, personal and health education teachers will be facilitating discussions on this subject with every class. “We want students and parents to know that we will continue to provide a safe learning environment for our students. We remain available to all parents and students who may have concerns in relation to this issue.”The Gardaí are now investigating the issue and Rape Crisis Network Ireland (RCNI) director Cliona Saidléar expressed concern that any young man should "think threats to rape are a joke".
