Hi, Erick.

I'm just a newbie in tagging, but I find a reason for keeping school and
university at the "amenity" tag. These educative institutions are often
easy to spot (they span over an entire building and in many cases they have
a campus or playground), while other "education" institutions or businesses
in your proposal usually span over a small office inside a building.
Schools and universities can work as points of reference in places where
street names or numbers are difficult to spot (that's why I map electric
poles in open field: they are points of reference).

This said, I find your classification of educational businesses useful, and
I think that adding additional tags to already mappped schools is easy,
because your categories are probably easier to understand than ISCED.

Just a question. A school where you prepare exams to get a position in a
bank, in the government or in the police is also a "cram school"? And why a
school where you prepare an exam to get a driving license is not?


Yours,
