A plan to close a rural Catholic primary school in County Tyrone has been called "incomprehensible and illogical" by its board of governors.
The Bishop of Clogher is also opposing the plan from the Council for Catholic Maintained Schools (CCMS) to close St Mary's Primary in Fivemiletown.
Pupil numbers at St Mary's have risen in recent years and the school is not in financial deficit.
But the CCMS has said that with only 42 children the school is not sustainable.
