Workers help fire damaged school
Sinfin fire
The exact cause of the fire is still not known
A Derby school which was devastated by fire in March has been given a helping hand from Rolls Royce staff.

Hundreds of the company's new graduates and apprentices have been painting, gardening and carrying out building work at the Sinfin Community School.

Assistant head teacher Paul Smithson said the work has really improved the school for the pupils.

Derby City Council and the school are drawing up plans for an £18m reconstruction of the building.

The exact cause of the fire is still unknown but police have been treating it as suspicious.
