Non-notable School Dsmdgold 12:34, 3 Oct 2004 (UTC)

Keep - notable enough school that just doesn't have a good write up. -- Graham ☺ | Talk 12:38, 3 Oct 2004 (UTC)
I agree with Graham. Keep - David Gerard 12:47, 3 Oct 2004 (UTC)
One interesting fact about it in the article, really needs improving. Very weak keep for me. Average Earthman 15:19, 3 Oct 2004 (UTC)
Merge into some larger category - It is somewhat notable, but not enough for its own article. ClockworkTroll 20:21, 3 Oct 2004 (UTC)
Delete. The "first school to receive grant status" fact isn't particularly notable. Anything else in the article would just be trivia about the school tacked on. This article has nowhere to go. -- WOT 03:13, 4 Oct 2004 (UTC)
Weak keep. I think being the first school to be grant-supported is notable. — Gwalla | Talk 17:50, 4 Oct 2004 (UTC)
Strong Delete. Not notable. Pre-university schools need to meet a pretty high bar to be notable, e.g. trying a very notable new teaching style, being the site of some notable event (e.g. Columbine), or similar. Schools are not intrinsically worth including on Wikipedia. --Improv 21:39, 4 Oct 2004 (UTC)
I don't know what "grant-maintained" status is, so I don't know if being the first to receive it is notable. At the very least, merge into some larger category; keep if this can be expanded to something informative and if being the first is something meaningful, rather than (say) getting its grant two days before the next one. -- Jmabel 01:01, Oct 6, 2004 (UTC)
Keep, but expand or write up grant-maintained school and merge/redirect there —siro χ o 06:08, Oct 6, 2004 (UTC)
Merge into grant-maintained school. That is significant! UK education policy of allowing schools to opt out of local government control but still get central government funding; More or less! I'll use that to create a stub and will flag it for attention. --Cje 09:23, 6 Oct 2004 (UTC)
Delete. Changed my mind. I agree with WOT - being the first to "receive grant status" isn't particularly notable. I hope the grant-maintained school article becomes something useful instead! But it doesn't need Skegness Grammar merged in to become useful --Cje 11:35, 6 Oct 2004 (UTC)
Keep. Grammar school. anthony (see warning) 22:02, 6 Oct 2004 (UTC)
Keep. Being the first grant-maintained school sounds notable. I'd certainly like to see this article expanded, but it doesn't seem right to delete it just for being a stub. Factitious 06:03, Oct 8, 2004 (UTC)
Delete - just deserves a line in grant-maintained school unless there is something else special about it --Jll 11:59, 8 Oct 2004 (UTC)
Keep. Intrigue 17:40, 8 Oct 2004 (UTC)
Delete. Wile E. Heresiarch 04:54, 12 Oct 2004 (UTC)

Entry Reorganisation and rewrite[edit]

Well frankly I was appalled. For a grammar school I have never seen such a pile of garbage. Bad spelling, simply teeth grinding composition and grammar....sorry I could not leave it like that, it was a disgrace. I have rewritten the page today 21stCenturyGreenstuff (talk) 01:23, 21 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
