Southlands School

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

A distinct instance of an article about this school has also been at draft, rejected twice at AfC. Both instances have the same original author, whose editing activity relates predominantly to this school and its operating company. The listings provided as references in the present article are insufficient, but the other draft is more developed than the one moved into mainspace, and should probably be the one used in considering notability; however the references in that draft are also listings. Aside from these, there can be found mention in an Employment Tribunal case and an Inquiry, but I agree with the earlier AfC reviewers and am not seeing evidence of attained WP:NCORP / WP:GNG notability.

 * It could perhaps be merged with Boldre its location. Its not a primary school but per WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES there's no longer presumed notability for schools.  Crouch, Swale  ( talk ) 17:09, 25 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Weak keep while WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES may no longer make secondary schools inherently notable it is a listed building and while being grade II also generally does not make a place inherently notable, being both listed and a secondary school may.  Crouch, Swale  ( talk ) 17:18, 26 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep. Cleary satisfies WP:GEOFEAT as a listed building. -- Necrothesp (talk) 15:47, 30 May 2022 (UTC)

 * delete Contrary to comments above, it has been my experience that mere Grade II listing has consistently been held insufficient to confer notability by itself. Without that, I don't see the GNG pass. Mangoe (talk) 15:18, 31 May 2022 (UTC)
 * That's a false interpretation of what is clearly laid down in the notability guideline. The wording is fairly unequivocal. It is also very definitely not true that mere Grade II listing has consistently been held insufficient to confer notability by itself. It usually has been held to be sufficient and the guideline clearly states that it should be sufficient. -- Necrothesp (talk) 09:12, 1 June 2022 (UTC)
