We got to get out of this "slave to notability" mindset. We need to develop
our own rulesets. If we feel it doesn't deserve an article of its own we
could have these listed in a "List of schools in district X" type of
catchall.

Fully agree with u Tinu, thats a trend that if it isnt
in google..it
doesnt exist... We have seen this issue in ml wiki much before while the
kerala govt has started the schoolwiki.in, a similar trend of adding
schools article gone high in ml.wikipedia. The problem is notability,
Its notable for a district...a state... Not for the globe????
No online reference..."online"...???
Thats where we need to find out more alternatives..

While the previous efforts for consensus have

the Notability of the Schools (

It may be a good idea for us to work on some guidelines on Indian Schools
under [[WP:INDIA]] perspective.
While many of the reputed schools in India have probably larger
notability ( but no articles on them) than many schools in the west that
have full fledged Wikipedia articles , we should seriously look at this
situation.
I am not sure of this particular school, but a school since 1945 might be
really notable. But in India, we have a bigger problem of inadequacy of
online references. We tend to think as if it isn't on Google, it probably
doesn't exist.
Just my 2 1/4 paisa.

It should be speedy deleted. No notability. So
should many similar
school article. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia not yellow pages.
