A Falkirk councillor has been reprimanded for suggesting a report on plans to mothball Blackness Primary School was not "honest".
During a debate at Falkirk Council' s education committee, Labour group leader Anne Hannah said that while the report made clear the benefits for children being educated in a larger school it did not include the many good points of small schools.
Blackness Primary currently has just eight pupils, four of whom do not live in the catchment area, and the council's policy is to consider mothballing when a school roll falls below ten pupils from the catchment area.
