I followed a link from amenity=school to amenity=prep_school, which was only as stub with the text "Tutorial schools" and description="Tutor school".
Taghistory shows it has been used since 2012, slowly increasing to a few hundred uses since 2018, but had no wiki page still March 2019. However, I found out that this tag has now been added to osmlab/name_suggestion_index for brands like Kumon - an East Asian test prep centre, aka "cram school". Unfortunately, this usage does not at all match the UK or US English meanings of "Prep School": 1) "Prep school": in the UK, a private primary school for children, especially boys, between the ages of 7 and 13, who will then usually go to "public school" (a type of private secondary school). See https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/prep-school 2) "college preparatory school", informally "Prep school" (North American English), a type of secondary school where there students plan to attend University. See https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/preparatory-school I couldn't find any definition of "prep school" which mentioned test prep centers, as in this wikipedia article: http://wikipedia.org/wiki/Test_preparation - perhaps it's Singaporean or Hong Kong English, or a translation error? So, what's a better term for a test prep centre, cramp school, or tutoring office? There the rarely used tag office=tutoring, but that doesn't quite cover a place like Kaplan or Kumon - https://au.kumonglobal.com/ - https://www.kaptest.com/ amenity=test_prep amenity=cram_school office=test_prep amenity=tutoring Other options? -Joseph _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
