 * Keep - lists of educational institutions are both normal and helpful, and this looks more useful than many such lists. Most of the institutions are notable so better linking is needed but that is an editorial matter. Such lists also form a useful repository for nn establishments such as elementary schools.

 * Being from Indore, I can with confidence say that most schools mentioned would not pass national standards leave alone international ones. That is the reason I nominated it for deletion. If these not notable names were to be removed, the list would come down to ~10 names across all categories. -- Harsh  Mujhse baat kijiye(Talk)(Contribs) 06:35, 17 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Sorry, but I disagree. Degree-awarding institutions and senior high schools are generally considered notable. If some institutions are not notable, then this page would be a convenient repository for information about them rather than creating perma-stubs. This is normal practice.

 * Keep: Criterion of notability of stand-alone article and that of inclusion in a list are different. The "List of X" just requires it's entries to be "X". And the topic "List of education institutes in a major city" is itself notable. §§AnimeshKulkarni (talk) 18:34, 17 June 2012 (UTC)
