Sir, – It is with a great sense of sadness that I have learned of the death of Seán Flynn, Education Editor of this newspaper (Breaking News, January 29th).
Seán's interest in education went far beyond what was required of him as a journalist. His interest in change and pursuit of new ideas kept him at the cutting edge of education news. Tuesday's Irish Times was always compulsive reading. His passing will bring sadness to everyone involved in Irish education.
On behalf of the Irish Primary Principals’ Network, I offer our deepest sympathy to his family, colleagues and friends. – Yours, etc,
SEAN COTTRELL,
