In the PV, the title is clearly pronounced as Murenase! Shiiton Gakuen.

Why is the title Seton Gakuen? Noticed the manga title is also written that way.

PV below for reference if needed.

Shiiton is just regular reading of katakana in the title. All manga sites used itand it stuck but author obviously named school after E.T. Seton. Blame Japanese for their inability to pronounce things differently.

Shiiton is how you pronounce Seton in Japanese. Not just this manga/anime, but the person as well. I have no idea how that person's name is pronounced in English, but if it's "see-ton", then shiiton is the closest you can get in standard Japanese. Just like city is pronounced shitty.

The Katakana is pronounced shiiton. Author must have just decided on weird romanisation.

That explains it. I totally forgot how stupid some foreign names can sound like in jp. Thanks.
