 * Keep schools at high-school level and above are generally considered notable except in extraordinary circumstances. Nothing in the article suggests this is an unusual case.  Andrew Lenahan -  St ar bli nd  03:40, 9 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep. A quick search at Google News reveals that this school has received repeated coverage in the Times Educational Supplement for its educational innovations, as well as coverage in other media for various events.  I've added a few of these sources.  So, not only should this school benefit from the usual presumption in favor of high schools' notability, in this case significant sources are readily found. (I didn't even have to use the item from The Sun about a bricklayer who was fired for distracting the girls with his "hunky" physique..)   --Arxiloxos (talk) 05:18, 9 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep it baby.  JBsupreme  ( talk ) 06:23, 9 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep. I'm the one who deleted it; because it simply said, " . Now there is an actual article about a high school, and policy/ convention says that all high schools are notable, with rare exceptions. - CobaltBlueTony™ talk 12:12, 9 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep - failure to carry out WP:BEFORE research. This school was assessed by Ofsted as Grade 1 who described it as "This is an outstanding school." TerriersFan (talk) 21:42, 9 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Rename -- This is clearly a high school, which by consensus makes it notable. However the article should be Holy Cross School, New Malden, as I expect that there are many other Holy Cross Schools.  Peterkingiron (talk) 23:34, 12 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Indeed there are. StAnselm (talk) 00:26, 13 March 2010 (UTC)


 * Keep -- Proposer does not say why it is not notable. Sounds very notable to me. Dew Kane (talk) 18:54, 14 March 2010 (UTC)
