Normal rule is that schools are merged with their location per WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES so merge with Bognor Regis? Crouch, Swale (talk) 09:57, 12 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. I can't recall a British state secondary school ever being deleted at AfD. No reason to make an exception for this one. There's always plenty of coverage for such schools. -- Necrothesp (talk) 12:57, 15 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Delete: If, indeed, there is "plenty of coverage," the onus is on any keep advocate to produce it. The GNG is explicitly clear that schools are not exempted from its requirements. Ravenswing 07:33, 17 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Some coverage (for construction of new school): [1][2] also [3] mentioning Bognor Regis Comprehensive School which it replaced (probably the same as "Bognor Regis School"). From https://www.old-maps.co.uk/ it looks like Bognor Regis School took over the buildings of Bognor Regis Grammar School and William Fletcher County Secondary School (and possibly also Bognor Regis Technical Institute); there would be coverage of this in newspapers and there could also be mentions in books.

Keep. Doesn't meet the criteria for G11 but certainly needs to be improved. Deb (talk) 12:43, 18 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete This school doesn't seem notable enough to pass either WP:GNG and WP:NORG. Sources by local outlets on trivial topics like school reunions as provided above don't really cut it for notability. --Adamant1 (talk) 18:19, 25 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
