Carlow School Under Pressure To Apologise To Female Students Over PE Clothing Request

A Carlow school is facing calls to apologise to female students after they were told they can't wear tight-fit clothing for PE.

It's after they were told not to wear tight-fit clothing to PE as it could be distracting to staff.

An online petition calling out the school for singling out the girls now has over 10,000 signatures.

Taoiseach Micheál Martin has said a full report on the incident will be prepared for the Minister of Education.
