Yes, I've made some changes to the tool at http://robert.mathmos.net/osm/schools/ , but it's to the data imported from OSM, rather than the (still very simplistic) matching algorithm. I'm now including both relations and ways tagged with either amenity=school or amenity=college. (Previously it was just ways tagged with amenity=school.) Looking at some of the Edubase data near to me, it's clear that some of the institutions should be tagged as colleges in OSM. Also near me are a number of schools in OSM that were tagged using multipolygon relations to collect together individual ways that make up the boundary. I've deliberately excluded nodes to encourage these to be converted into areas. The matching algorithm could certainly be improved significantly, and hopefully I'll get a chance to look at this at some point later this month. But in the mean time, the best way to ensure the right things are matched to each other is to map any missing schools, retag any objects incorrectly tagged as schools, and add ref:edubase, ref:seedcode and ref:deniirn tags as appropriate. Finally, if you haven't looked recently, you'll find some other other reports and Overpass Turbo links at http://robert.mathmos.net/osm/schools/progress/ , which people may find useful for more Quality Control work on our Schools data.
