I am aware that the following set of schools were closed/mothballed in your council:

Cabrach Primary, mothballed on March 2010;
Inveravon Primary School, mothablled on June 2017
 

I would be extremely grateful if you could provide me with the following information:

1. The exact reason why the school closed, for instance decaying enrollment, building suitability or other.
2. The date when the first proposal was made.
3. Where the pupils are sent to
4. What happens to the school building following closure and for how long, for instance, the building remains empty for 2 years, then it is repurposed in a community centre for 3 years, and then demolished within an urban regeneration project.
