The fire was discovered by the school caretaker during routine maintenance on 9 December.

In the days following, the hall was out of use to the school and community groups.

The Health and Safety Executive forbid the re-opening of the hall until all investigations and repair work needed as a result of the fire was concluded.

A department spokeswoman said work had been undertaken to repair the building, but that some parts are not simply bought 'off the shelf'.

Nor was it a task that could be done quickly, she added.
