The result was delete. Meeting WP:V is a necessary, but not sufficient, condition to keep an article. -- RoySmith (talk) 01:06, 26 August 2017 (UTC)

I considered PROD, but because it is an institution which provides education, I think this would benefit from a full discussion. While this institution clearly exists, there is little to no discussion of it in reliable sources. If stripped of the detailed, near-advertorial program information, the article would be a sentence long. The only sources I could find were (a single paragraph buried deep in the article) and  (an interview with the owner). In my opinion that simply isn't enough coverage to pass WP:GNG or WP:NORG. I know normally educational institutions are given a pass but I feel that because this one is for-profit, it (and others like it) should be given more scrutiny. &spades;PMC&spades; (talk) 11:30, 3 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete. Unreferenced except primary sources. Unclear if this is a high school, private supplementary classes school, or such. In either case, fails WP:GNG - no indication of importance, etc. Likely spam/yellow pages type of an entry. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here  12:01, 3 August 2017 (UTC)
 * It's definitely not a high school, it's private supplementary English classes. &spades;PMC&spades; (talk) 01:09, 10 August 2017 (UTC)

 * Keep as WP:V is satisfies here in using this, this, this and this. Nothing else is needed to question its accuracy. SwisterTwister   talk  04:13, 11 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Link 1: already mentioned in my nom, single paragraph buried in a piece clearly about something else. Link 2: same as link 3, which I assume is an error. That piece also has the same author as link 4, which per the GNG makes it count as a single source: multiple publications from the same author or organization are usually regarded as a single source for the purposes of establishing notability. &spades;PMC&spades; (talk) 05:35, 11 August 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete – Does not meet WP:GNG or WP:NSCHOOL. Available sources from online searches consist of passing mentions. North America1000 03:18, 25 August 2017 (UTC)
