 * Keep; five seconds on Google should have been enough to see that this is a significant and long-standing organization who (among other things) quite literally wrote the book on Islam in British schools. &#8209; Iridescent 08:39, 1 June 2017 (UTC)

 * Keep - MET is central in debates in England over education of young Muslims, especially through the activity of Hewitt and Sarwar and particularly in the 1970s-1990s. I've added some material about this. The Trust is almost always discussed in news articles as the organization which an individual represents, with the individual receiving more in depth discussion, but the consistency and import of the organization's role leads me to believe they are notable. In particular, WP:GNG notes that coverage is significant if it "addresses the topic directly and in detail, so that no original research is needed to extract the content." This is clearly the case, even if no indepth article about the organization is cited. Smmurphy(Talk) 16:12, 15 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep per article improvements. Adequately referenced and I believe that the sources demonstrate notability at this time. K.e.coffman (talk) 06:07, 18 June 2017 (UTC)
