With an explicit modeling (e.g. site or group) you can answer this question 
unambiguously.

In any case it would seem desirable to be explicit about the extent of every 
school so an area representation is better than just nodes, and as this will 
provide you with all the grounds covered at least once, adding another explicit 
polygon would seem redundant.
If you use just nodes for the schools you will not see the difference between a 
small school inside the campus of a big school and 2 similar sized schools 
which share the same grounds (for example).


Some schools share land with kindergartens, colleges etc. It may be difficult 
for the mapper to determine which facilities are exclusive and which shared.
Some educational places are for 'outdoor eduction' and located in the countryside.

e.g. https://www.joeys.org/outdoor-education/colo/


So I think a more expansive tag would be better - hence landuse=educational
