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.
