Hi
Is there a similar national database for nurseries, or would that be
controlled by individual local authorities?
Further comments in-line

A few updates for the schools mapping project. As always there is also
the page on the wiki for quick reference (
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/UK_Quarterly_Projects ).
0. Changeset comments
Don't forget to add #OSMschools to your changeset comments. I will ask
Pascal Neis for an updated "Who's contributing" dataset next week.
I've been adding this tag but will probably only retrieve the roughest
of data. I've often gone off on a tangent amending/adding adjacent
objects, realigning roads etc.
2. Robert's data by postcode.
Robert W has updated his comparison site to enable you to download the
schools by postcode data as a geojson. Example download URL is:
http://robert.mathmos.net/osm/schools/progress/B/data.js
Once downloaded, open the file, delete the first line ("var matched =
") and save.
I've already been using this data in P2 as part of it's 'Tasks' feature.
No laborious panning around!

Do any other the other editors have a similar feature?
I found it easier if I separate Robert's files into 3 for each
FeatureCollection: Matched, Unmatched & Missing. I also wanted to do
start with my local county rather than by postcode so I've used Overpass
Turbo to retrieve the relevant data: http://overpass-turbo.eu/s/dIG
(change county name>run>Export>geojson)
Cheers
