It's a G11 and probably honestly a G12, but I can't find the actual source. I could stub it, but then there's nothing left so bringing it here for discussion. ALso because the article has a long history and schools + PROD don't mix. This ~ 35 year old school has no coverage to indicate notability. There a listings, such as guides to international schools, but zero in depth coverage. As this is an international school, the lack of ability to search in the Nepalese script should not be a huge issue as there would be some coverage in international press.

Star Mississippi, some of the sources (of copyvio) are in the article, such as
[1]. I wouldn't speedy though. It's an extremely old article, and its first revision
[2] is neither a G12 nor a clear G11. I can see why this article survived for so long though. Up until around 2 years ago, maybe even 1.5 years ago, it would have been kept per
WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES.

- The reason I think it was a G12 beyond the link in your first sentence was the "our" in
This high standard of education we now want to pass on to others through our Education Quality Improvement Programmes (EQUIP) for KISC teachers and Nepali schools
(emphasis mine). It's copy/pasted from somewhere, likely a 2010 version of the school's website. And yes, you're absolutely right. There's still some dissension on schools, which is why I generally think they need more than PROD. Thanks! Star Mississippi 02:43, 28 September 2022 (UTC)

- Delete-- I could not find anything online. Since we are no longer presuming notability based on proof of existence, it's a delete. It is clear that people close to the school have edited it over the years. But the article still only contains primary sources. Most of it is promotional and copyvio. So,
WP:TNT is reasonable either way.
