[Tagging] RFC: school:for (to map special education and other ambiguous cases)

[Pieter Vander Vennet]

Hi Martin,

Thanks for the interest and for reaching out.

Yes, social_facility:for was indeed an inspiration for this tag.

I do know that this is a mix between groups and disabilities. I chose 
this way because:

- having a disability doesn't make you the disability: someone might 
have dyslexia, but that doesn't mean that this is defining them that 
much that they are called 'dyslectic' in every situation; in other 
words: their disability shouldn't become their identity
- some persons have multiple issues, e.g. autism and and dyslexia. Are 
they an autistic dyslectic, a dyslectic autist or a person with dyslexia 
and autism? In either case, the latter formulation sounds better ;)

We might indeed rephrase some groups (e.g. normal student to 
normal_abled) for consistency.

Kind regards,
Pieter
