What is the meaning of this tag?

Right now the description is only "An educational facility outside general education system". This does not make sense to me, as a North American. What do you mean by this? What is "general education system," and what sort of facility is this? --Jeisenbe (talk) 06:26, 16 February 2021 (UTC)

Hi, @Jeisenbe! I suggested this tag for institutions that provide various additional or specialized training, such as language schools, dance schools, courses, and more. Something B (talk) 06:35, 16 February 2021 (UTC)

See amenity=language_school, amenity=music_school, amenity=driving_school etc. at Map_features#Education - if one is missing you are free to propose a new tag like amenity=dance_school - though I believe those are covered under leisure=dance currently. --Jeisenbe (talk) 07:00, 16 February 2021 (UTC)

I propose a single main tag for such institutions, and clarify the meaning of this with education_profile=*. Something B (talk) 07:08, 16 February 2021 (UTC)

Ok, if this is a proposal, please discuss with the wider community via the Proposal process it before adding the tag as a link on other pages.
