Those are the facts.
blanch152 wrote: » Sure he couldn't have said that, could he? I mean, only a few months ago when the medical advice was to go slowly as we moved out of lockdown, the calls from Sinn Fein were to accelerate things getting going, which was against the medical advice. It seems that Sinn Fein are against the medical advice when the government follows it, but for the medical advise when the government rejects it. A load of opportunistic hypocritical illiterate chancers best describes the Sinn Fein front bench.

Twelve school-related Covid-19 clusters were notified to the Health Service Executive over the course of last week, according to data published this evening. It brings to 48 the total number of school child or staff related outbreaks since schools reopened. 47 of those clusters are still active, according to the HSE, with one recorded as "closed".The latest data from the Health Protection Surveillance Centre shows an average of 12 clusters associated with school children and/or school staff emerging per week over the past four weeks

The Covid-19 virus appears to have spread in a school between two children who used to swap desks because one needed to be nearer the blackboard, a HSE briefing was told today. In the case involving the school children the first pupil was infected within their family but the second child who tested positive in the same class was a mystery because there was no evidence of a connection between the two.However, a teacher provided the clue when they said the children swapped desks during one class so that one of the child was nearer the blackboard, The virus may have been passed on through an infected surface on the desk.

From your own link: "The HPSC says while these outbreaks are associated with school children and or school staff, "transmission of the virus within the school has not necessarily been established"." Just to back it up further with some international expert evidence:https://www.ecdc.europa.eu/en/publications-data/children-and-school-settings-covid-19-transmission "Investigations of cases identified in school settings suggest that child to child transmission in schools is uncommon and not the primary cause of SARS-CoV-2 infection in children whose onset of infection coincides with the period during which they are attending school, particularly in preschools and primary schools."It is notable that it has been Sinn Fein, particularly Michelle O'Neill in the North, who have been loudest in calling for schools to be shut. It shows the value that Sinn Fein put both on education and on medical advice.

On the one side, supporting transmission in schools, you have presented a tabloid headlined article from the Irish Independent.On the other sides, are many health experts and reports which all conclude the same thing that transmission in a school setting is very rare, and any cases that do arise usually arise from transmission outside of the school setting.
If you are still struggling as to who to believe, there could be a job for you on the Sinn Fein front bench.
