To me an office is more of an administration type thing. I don't think
it should be used for an educational function.
An office=educational_institution would be for record keeping,
admissions, teacher preparation offices - that kind of thing.
shop=* to me they sell physical things .. mostly. I don't think of
them as educational.
amenity=prep_school .. umm amenity ... not something I like to use.
And prep_school tends to indicate preparation before going to school
rather than extra work on top of school.
Looking at https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Education_features
I think it would be good to have a tag eduction=tutoring.
That could then have sub tags for max:age/min:age etc.
That then leads into thinking on using an education key for
schools/colleges/kindergartens etc... which might be a good thing?
I agree re shop. And I'd definitely avoid "prep school" since it has an
entirely different meaning in American English (it's a posh high school.)
I've been tagging these as office=tutoring since it seemed to be the
relevant tag with the most support (with amenity=tutoring in second
place.) But I agree that office isn't ideal -- generally these places
don't look/feel like offices, more like classrooms.
If there's a big reorg into education=* (similar to healthcare=*.. there
have been a couple proposals for this I think) then that would
definitely be a contender. As of now, no one would find them.
