this is not a public school but rather a private college, a rather tiny one given its shopfront. 2 gnews hits [1] and only in the local newspaper and no wider coverage outside Geelong means it's not notable. LibStar (talk) 08:37, 12 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. Calling the Geelong Advertiser a "local newspaper" is a little misleading considering it is the major newspaper to a city of over 160,000 people. I would think that if the school received significant coverage in the Advertiser then it would pass the general notability guideline. Jenks24 (talk) 04:40, 13 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

it still is only 2 hits. so even the Advertiser does not significantly cover it. LibStar (talk) 06:10, 13 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. No RS, no ghits. An 'artist run school' with 'no marking system' doesn't sound like it'll ever have any notability. Szzuk (talk) 21:07, 16 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom and User:Szzuk. Whatever the size of the town, it still makes The Geelong Advertiser a local newspaper, just as much as the UK's Birmingham Post and the Worcester Evening News - all cities of the same size or larger. Kudpung (talk) 01:23, 18 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
