<p>This is why the ISCED codes exist:</p>
<p><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Standard_Classification_of_Education#ISCED_2011_levels,_categories,_and_sub-categories">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Standard_Classification_of_Education#ISCED_2011_levels,_categories,_and_sub-categories</a></p>
<p>They are already used in OSM:</p>

<p>So the original enquiry can be addressed with building=school and isced:level=*</p>

<br /> <br /> while this is true, choosing good names for the tags still helps in reducing misunderstandings. "college" for example is not a very clear term for use on global scale, because it can mean different things in different places / context. Something more abstract like secondary_school or different words like vocational school or professional school, which describe a concept, would IMHO be better than college.<br /> <br /> cheers,<br /> Martin <br /> _______________________________________________<br /> Tagging mailing list<br /> <a href="mailto:Tagging@openstreetmap.org">Tagging@openstreetmap.org</a><br /> <a href="https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging</a></div>
