Non-notable school. Dunc| 12:00, 15 Oct 2004 (UTC)

  • Delete. Non-notable. jni 12:12, 15 Oct 2004 (UTC)
    • Extremely weak keep. Slight notability. jni 05:32, 21 Oct 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep. The school is notable within Scotland for the following achievements:
  • First public sector organisation to receive the 'Quality Scotland' business excellence award
  • First state-funded school to abandon the Standard Grade examination system
  • First state-funded school to use the electronic version of the UCAS application system

These were not in the original article but have now been added Cynical 12:13, 15 Oct 2004 (UTC)

  • Very, very weak keep. Other high schools should still be deleted. Wyllium 12:43, 2004 Oct 15 (UTC)
  • Keep - seems to be slightly more notable than most school articles. Barneyboo 13:03, 15 Oct 2004 (UTC)
  • Weak keep: it is properly named and outlines (slight) notability. Geogre 14:18, 15 Oct 2004 (UTC)
  • Weak keep. While I hate to suggest that a stub on VfD should be shortened, the paragraph that points out that it has classrooms and a cafeteria probably obscures why the school is notable. I did add a see also for Saint Ninian, to answer one obvious question. Smerdis of Tlön 14:26, 15 Oct 2004 (UTC)
  • K I would remove the electronic UCAS bit, and restructure the details of the extension (it doesn't need more height than the achievements). PFI is highly controversial, and it's not currently common amongst school improvement programmes. It still needs expansion though. They abandoned the Standards, but what did they pick up in their place? Chris 15:30, 15 Oct 2004 (UTC)
  • Access 3, Intermediate 1 and Intermediate 2 (all part of the new Higher Still system)--Cynical 16:11, 15 Oct 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep. Schools are notable. anthony (see warning) 16:49, 19 Oct 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep. Mark Richards 18:00, 20 Oct 2004 (UTC)
