SIX youths charged with affray in connection with the mass brawl at Moorhead High School in Accrington were bailed by Hyndburn magistrates, but told not to go near the school until their case is heard.
The six -- one aged 14, three aged 15 and two aged 16 -- all from Accrington, are charged with affray in connection with the disturbances at the school on January 14.
The six, three of whom are white and three are Asian, were granted bail with the condition that they do not go within 50 metres of the school's boundary.
The case was adjourned until February 19 to the same court.
Governors and management at the school were meeting yesterday to discuss the future of the 19 pupils suspended as a result of the disturbances.
A Lancashire County Council spokesman said the meeting was a routine matter carried out for all suspended pupils.
He said: "In the case of pupils excluded for six or more days, it is necessary for the governors or any school to meet to discuss the case and consider the case in order to decide their future actions.
"In this instance, pupils have been excluded for an investigative period and the school is dealing with it accordingly."
