This AfD was closed as "speedy keep", but doesn't appear to meet the requirements for that outcome at Wikipedia:Speedy keep. Moreover, the closing summary states "secondary schools are always kept as notable", but this is not true. See, for example, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Good Shepherd English School, endorsed by Wikipedia:Deletion review/Log/2016 March 30#Good Shepherd English School. I am therefore challenging this close on procedural grounds. The discussion should have been allowed to run its course, and the close based on assessment of consensus at the end of that period of discussion.

• Overturn and reopen No, it shouldn't have been a speedy keep but snow keep might have been intended (and even our most distinguished administrators sometimes get confused). However, there was no good purpose in closing it a bit early, particularly when you said you might comment later. Although I am personally glad that high schools articles are generally kept and we are spared wasteful discussion, this is not a formal guideline and objections should be heard if people really insist. It wasn't at all a good close and the rationale was very poor indeed. So, I reluctantly think the AFD ought to be continued even though this prolongs the waste of time.
