This is written about a normal school which has not achieved any conceivable notability as far as I can establish, short of winning a few prizes in dance and CPR.

The article is padded out with excessive quantities of unnecessary bumf and information which, quite frankly, only a statistician would be interested in. Once you remove the padding, there is practically nothing to base an article on.

  • Keep This is an academic secondary school for students in grades 10-12. Per the precendent described in WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES, we routinely keep articles about secondary schools unless a hoax is involved. I do not know what "bumf" means, but the nominator is free to edit the article with the goal of improving it. Cullen328 Let's discuss it 00:08, 3 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
    • Comment: Firstly, bumf means junk, as in "Bumf mail"; it's British slang. Secondly, I wouldn't have the inclination to rebuild the article; I cannot put flesh on the skeleton of something which is already dead. Please feel free to take the challenge on. Regardless of the fact it's a high school which is "routinely kept", I call IAR. This article in its present state is irretrievable and requires a full rewrite or deletion, the latter being preferable. CharlieTheCabbie|paġna utenti|diskussjoni 11:43, 3 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Per WP:ORG, "An organization is generally considered notable if it has been the subject of significant coverage in reliable, independent secondary sources." The article currently has one third party reference which briefly mentions the school, and books that do not sound like they go into depth on the school. I would not consider this to be significant coverage. As Charlie said, when you take away the padding, there is nothing of note. The article is already tagged as excessively detailed. If that were to be fixed, it'd be half of a stub. I am in strong favor of deletion. -- Mysterious Gopher (talk), 12:00, 3 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

    • WITHDRAWN: Thank you to Ansh666 for doing what I frankly considered to be bloody near impossible. If this is able to be fleshed out any further, I wish you all good luck. Passing administrators, please consider this as a rapid close, no further action. CharlieTheCabbie|paġna utenti|diskussjoni 14:27, 4 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
