Bankstown Grammar School
< Primary schools are generally not notable, generally it is only high schools that are listed. I find no reason why this school has any reason to be listed based on its notability. It also fails the proposed guideline WP:SCHOOL TheRanger 02:12, 17 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Comment "This was listed in error, at the time I thought that this was a grade school and it is in fact a high school. Based on this fact I now think that the article should be kept. I would like to withdraw my nomination.TheRanger 04:49, 18 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Super Speedy Happy Time Keep If you click the link to the actual school, you'll find that it is a High School. A Grammar, or Private High School at that. Rather Exclusive. Article needs expanding, but certainly not deleting. Pursey 02:31, 17 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete No assertion of importance of subject. Catchpole 06:32, 17 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. More notable than many High Schools and they are generally kept. --Bduke 07:05, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

 * DeleteNo particular assertion of notability other than being a high school, and I do not agree athat every high school is notable. In what ways has this school excelled, as described by newspaper articles or recognition by bodies which evaluate schools in the area? The article does not mention adequately its Christian emphasis and pastoral care for the students as described at the website. Edison 13:32, 17 October 2006 (UTC)
 * The article should probably be marked for cleanup, but not deletion. Pursey 16:40, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

 * Keep Verifiable and notable. Nomination appears to be a mistake.
 * I agree that the nomination appears to be in error, keep with cleanup. However I do not know how to withdraw the nomination..TheRanger 17:25, 17 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Keep no reason to delete, per Merchbow, all schools are inherently notable -- Librarianofages 21:34, 17 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge with the local community page per WP:SCHOOLS; note that the later is not a deletion criteria. &mdash; RJH (talk) 22:01, 17 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep - Fits a more liberal interpretation of WP:SCHOOLS. It is interesting information and there are tons of pages on Grammar Schools like this one on Wikipedia. --Ineffable3000 22:16, 17 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep as per Schools/Arguments --Vsion 01:12, 18 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. There are some sources for this including Google News Archive showing it was under threat from an expansion of Bankstown Airport. Capitalistroadster 04:17, 18 October 2006 (UTC)
