:({{Find sources|Islamia Primary School}})

Non-notable primary school; ages 4-11. We don't generally have stand-alone articles for such schools, unless they are especially notable, which does not appear to be the case here. Epeefleche (talk) 05:09, 17 May 2014 (UTC)

• Keep and expand Oppose at present This is a stub and should have been so noted. I disagree about its notability - it is said to be the best-known Muslim school in Britain, likely because it was founded by Cat Stevens. It is the first publicly funded Muslim school in Britain which adds to its notability. I have expanded the stub some, and believe it should not be deleted or merged at this time - the Cat Stevens article is already long and can't easily accommodate an influx of material.

• Keep While most primary schools are not notable, this one is - not just as the first publicly funded Muslim school in Britain, but more for the repeated attempts over a fifteen year period before it finally obtained public funding. From memory, it got repeated national press coverage throughout that period (of which Tvoz has added one piece as a source in the article) - though searching for pre-internet news coverage online can be rather hit-and-miss. And the lengthy campaign still occasionally gets referred to in reliable sources (such as [http://books.google.co.uk/books?id=XmeJ7ikUliAC&pg=PA42 here]). PWilkinson (talk) 21:24, 18 May 2014 (UTC)
• Keep. Following substantial expansion, the article now meets WP:ORG. The Whispering Wind (talk) 01:29, 19 May 2014 (UTC)
• Keep, nomination was in good faith and has had a good effect, article is now well sourced and demonstrates notability. Suggest speedy keep per WP:SNOW. – Fayenatic London 21:25, 21 May 2014 (UTC)
• Keep - As the first state-funded Muslim school in the UK, with the celebrity founder tie-in, this subject seems to meet the "exceptionally newsworthy" standard for inclusion of elementary schools. Carrite (talk) 16:32, 23 May 2014 (UTC)
