Primary-year 8 schools are not generally notable under wp standards, and are subject to deletion/redirect; this appears to be one of the NN ones. Epeefleche (talk) 22:25, 24 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete since it does not appear to satisfy WP:ORG and per WP:OUTCOMES#Schools. Edison (talk) 18:21, 27 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Redirect to locality per standard procedure. Non notable schools are generally not deleted; instead, as demonstrated by 100s of AfD closures, they are redirected to the article about the school district (USA) or to the article about the locality (rest of the world). --Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 08:30, 30 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- NOTE for closer: if this AfD is closed as 'redirect', please remember to include the {{R from school}} on the redirect page. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 08:30, 30 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

- Redirect/Merge to locality or school governing body per longstanding consensus. I'm also expressing concern with the large numbers of school nominations at the moment; it can't be expected that all editors be able to respond to this mass act of deletionist ideology. ˜danjel [ talk | contribs ] 00:37, 8 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. A Google search doesn't turn up any in-depth coverage in third-party sources; most of the hits I get contain only information from the school's website, or include a brief mention of it in a directory or list of ratings with many other schools. Nothing in the article itself suggests that evidence of notability might be found elsewhere. Ammodramus (talk) 14:48, 12 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- - and that's why we generally redirect them with a mention in a parent article. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 05:33, 13 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
