In the UK, some schools are part of a trust or a federation. These are distinct and it can be of interest if a school is part of some group or is under local authority control.
This has been tagged (mainly by me) with
- school:trust =
yes/no - school:trust:name or school:federation:name
- school:trust:type =
multi_academy/single_academy
But I have realised that these are not very global tags, however I don’t know much about how schools work in the rest of the world. I’ve noticed that the USA has school districts and I can imagine that the tagging could be translated to that quite easily.
I think it may be good to change the tagging to school:group, school:group:name and school:group:type (this is not a formal proposal for that yet).
Couldn’t this just be operator?
Academy trusts basically function as an operator, but federations can’t be tagged as such.
