Then the tagging for primary and secondary would better be: school:ML=primary/secondary... The other alternative would be to use isced:level Both of them are better than two different tags: school:first_cycle=yes/no and school:second_cycle=yes/no > > Would be great to change the upper case as suggested by Rafael, it > is easy to do with LibreOffice Calc text functions. As Renaud is doing all the conversion with a python script, he probably want to do it with python too and in the same code.
