Is this a list or a B-class article? The entry does give a list of schools, but I think it is an article about the publication that lists schools rather than just a list of schools. It is not dissimilar to [[QS World University Rankings]] which is very much an article and not a list. That one is for universities, this one is for for private schools.

Notability (June 2024) - The article is well-referenced by a multitude of media articles and mentions from a number of countries around the world including major national publications such as The National, Gulf Today and Khaleej Times from the UAE, Brussels Times from Belgium, Daily Tribune from Bahrain, The Standard from Hong Kong, Gulf Times from Qatar, Monaco News from Monaco. It is true that there are no references from major national titles in the UK or US (apart from Time Out UK) but there are refences from some UK local papers such as Berkshire Live, My London and Bracknell News. In any case, Wikipedia is a global encyclopaedia and its notability requirement is not UK- or US-centric. The media references are independent of the article's subject, are from a range of countries and are from different years. To me this means that the article more than meets Wikipedia's notability requirement and I propose to remove this tag.

Promotional Tone (June 2024) - I cannot see any instances of promotional tone in the article and suggest removing this tag from the maintenance box.

Article creation in return for undisclosed payments evidenced by lack of neutral point of view (June 2024) - I do not see anything in the article suggesting a non-neutral point of view. Almost every sentence in the article is referenced. I propose to remove this tag. [[User:GreenDesk7|GreenDesk7]] ([[User talk:GreenDesk7|talk]]) 10:38, 2 July 2024 (UTC)

List or Article?

Is this a list or a B-class article? The entry does give a list of schools, but I think it is an article about the publication that lists schools rather than just a list of schools. It is not dissimilar to QS World University Rankings which is very much an article and not a list. That one is for universities, this one is for for private schools.
