 From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Royal_College_of_Music

"all aspects of Westernclassical music <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Classical_music>  from undergraduate to doctoral level.

There is a junior department, where 300 children aged 8 to 18 are educated on Saturdays"

'Music Schools' come in a wide variety. Some fit the classical 'school', 'college' or 'university' thinking.

Some are after 'school' hours type of thing.

The OSM 'dancing_school' tag looks to be a separate facility from a general school.

So I cannot see a tag for a 'general school' that specialises in anything.. but I know they do exist.
Taginfo has 1 use of education_program:contemporary_dancing that might be a way of indicating a specialisation?

education_program:music=yes???

I found no wiki pages on education_program ...
