WORKERS were today still battling to get a school's power supply up and running after nearly a week.

Pupils at Beardwood High School, Blackburn, have been unable to attend school since the major cable fault wiped out all electricity.

A phone number for parents will be launched tomorrow to keep them up to date.

Information will also be posted on a noticeboard outside the school and the information line, manned by the head and senior staff, will run from 1pm to 5pm tomorrow on 01254 59532.
