Keep until such time as the policy changes, it doesn't have to meet GNG, as a secondary school (or one that includes one) per WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 01:55, 25 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Keep The basic premise of the precedent behind school outcomes is that GNG does not require that sources be in the article or even that they be accessible to anyone on the English Wikipedia. It simply requires that they exist and that someone in the right geography and the right language skills could find them. We keep secondary schools under this presumption that if they are a real school, these sources likely exist even if the country they are in does not make them easily accessible online to Anglophones. The current RfC on secondary school notability might lead to a reconsideration of the practice the compromise on schools that has existed over the past decade, but until such a time, we should continue to keep articles of legitimate secondary schools.

Keep as a secondary school per longstanding precedent and consensus. -- Necrothesp (talk) 15:29, 25 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Keep on grounds of avoiding Wikipedia:Systemic bias - this deletion discussion shows why the current practice of "keep secondary schools" is good for avoiding systemic bias: A Russian school in Egypt is not something native English speakers often think about. I've encountered difficulty finding Russian sources on the internet but I'm sure sources in Russian and Arabic exist, and perhaps some Egyptian newspapers may have a story about it in English...

Delete - at present, the article cites no independent sources, so even the low bar of WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES is not met. Cordless Larry (talk) 19:47, 31 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I found three pages of Russian results. I'm happy to be convinced by Russian speakers that there is significant, independent coverage amongst that. Cordless Larry (talk) 19:54, 31 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Precedent; sources provided; no policy to delete otherwise. Lourdes 16:40, 2 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. No third-party reliable sources. These are not optional, see WP:V. Sandstein 20:13, 2 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
