For any generic school buildings. Buildings for specific uses (sports halls etc) should be tagged for their purpose.
Use amenity=school for the perimeter of the school grounds (or amenity=college or amenity=kindergarten).
There is a similar tag used for universities building=university
How to map
- The school building fills the school ground completely
Map the outline of the area
of the building and add the tags amenity=school and building=school. Of course you can add name=* and address as well.
- The school ground is larger than the building
Map the whole area of school grounds including all the buildings and add tags amenity=school and name=*.
Add the tags building=school to every school building, and appropriate tags to buildings that have no classrooms, such as building=shed.
You can use tags amenity=college or amenity=kindergarten as well depending on the school's level.
