The result was merge to English Schools Foundation#Schools. Noting that merge is the consensus -- the target is split with this and List of English Schools Foundation schools. This can be handled editorially and the close should not be taken as a !vote on the target. Star Mississippi 21:56, 6 April 2024 (UTC)

- Redirect to English Schools Foundation. WP:MILL is an essay and is not sufficient reason to delete. However, it is interesting to note that the article currently cites zero sources, which is a red flag. Before deciding to delete, we perform a WP:BEFORE search, which shows that Sha Tin Junior School is frequently mentioned in the South China Morning Post. However, after checking a dozen or so of these articles, it appears that most of these articles are brief mentions. So far, I haven't been able to find one that focuses in depth on Sha Tin Junior School; the newspaper typically covers STJS alongside other ESF schools, and so redirecting to English Schools Foundation seems apt. I don't agree with redirecting to List of English Schools Foundation schools, as it seems unclear whether that list meets the criteria for a stand-alone list, and the other article offers a lot more depth about the subject.

- Merge/redirect to English Schools Foundation#Schools per Wikipedia:Deletion policy#Alternatives to deletion. I did not find significant coverage about Sha Tin Junior School (traditional Chinese: 沙田小學; simplified Chinese: 沙田小学) in my searches for sources. Cunard (talk) 09:46, 2 April 2024 (UTC)
