Procedural nom: This should qualify as A7 but Malik Shabazz asserted that A7 does not apply to schools. While this is true for traditional schools, that only applies to traditional educational associations. Indeed the reasons for such a policy were related to this. It's a hyper technical, and I believe wrong, reading of A7 to assert that any organization that labels itself "school" is exempt from A7 (specifically db-org).

There is no indication of notability here, and no sourcing to indicate as such. Google search turns up what I think is the organization's website, the wiki article, and then a yellow pages listing. Shadowjams (talk) 04:07, 2 July 2010 (UTC)

 * Delete. After good faith media search, I have been unable to identify any significant coverage in independent reliable sources. A7 should, in fact, apply as this is not a "school" in the sense intended by the restriction, failing which A4 is certainly applicable. But here we are anyway. Bongo  matic  04:39, 2 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete - I was not able to find any significant coverage of this school to establish notability.  GB fan  talk 07:42, 2 July 2010 (UTC)
