 * .*Keep A college is notable. This needs to be cleaned up rather than deleted.Obina 18:09, 10 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. Ok I have looked at everything I can find.  A College is notable, but I am no longer sure this is real.  The only hits are to Wikipedia, and to the so called British Accreditation Council, which is not a well known body.  I can't find a reference on the (local government) Council web site, nor any student that goes there now or ever went.  I think we should delete this as un verified until there is a solid reference that it is real.  As mentioned below, they are using Wikipedia on this site as a pseudo endorser for the College. Can anyone tell if the Cherie Blair photo is real or an edit?  Oh and it is said to be part of Worldwide Vancover University, a virtual university with no apparent link to Vancover BC.Obina 22:56, 10 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep should not be on afd. It is supported by local council. Mrsteviec 18:44, 10 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Link to local council is only to main page, there is no mention of the college on the LB Newham site. Note how the college website refers to this article.Jamorama 20:59, 10 January 2006 (UTC)
 * If this is bogus they sure have a lot of people fooled including voluntary directories and the local MP.  Mrsteviec 12:24, 12 January 2006 (UTC)
 * OFSTED however seem to have passed them by. The local MP is Lyn Brown, and a visit from an MP does not necessarily mean than the member has done his research. Getting a listing on the NSVC site is as easy as [filling in this form]. Considering this wikipedia entry, it is unsurprising that the college would be listed here. -- JamJar 12:58, 12 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Ok. You seem pretty convinced. Mrsteviec 13:13, 12 January 2006 (UTC)
 * There seems to be a pattern of gaining from the reflected glory of others here, be it wikipedia, Stephen Timms, or NVSC. What is lacking is any independent verification of his notability. A visit from an MP is interesting, but on its own not enough to verify his status. Is there any comment on the college from other, more verifiably credible academics?
