Hi, With the exception of pre-schools, aren't most schools defined by the year group, rather than age? Around a here, a primary school is Prep to Grade 6, and high school is Year 7 to Year 12. The actual ranges of kids varies a bit - some skip years, some repeat. I can't see much use for coding an "age group".
To be honest, I'm not sure I even see the value in coding year groups - what does "year_group=7-12" tell you that "Blah Blah High School" doesn't? The use case of a parent choosing where to send their kids is such a rare one, and involves so much other research that I don't think having that factoid in OSM achieves much.
