Hello all! Newbie here. Would like to ask the best category for an edit for a school building to be accepted. Most of the edit suggestions I submitted were not accepted.

Hello @BackTrailsPH
Welcome on board local guides connect forum.
There is the category of a school per say that should be used. Nevertheless,if it has to do with your edit being rejected. You are not always wrong and the system isn’t always right too.It could be a question of the system not being able to verify your claims. That is something you should just take easy and maybe let it be for sometime. Try again and see how it goes.
Hope this helps you abit
Happy guiding
Cheers

The school category is extra protected making it pretty much impossible to add or edit schools in many countries.
In the past I have seen many schools getting a ton of spam / jokes / harrasmrnt of teachers, so I imagine this could be part of the reason why we can not add and edit schools.
The Local school authorities have ways to add them.

Thank you for this insight, @SholaIB.
Thank you for this detail, @MortenCopenhagen.
Since September 2024, Schools & Colleges & Education centres are under auto denial mode, except website change, duplicate of another place & location change without address, that’s the reason you are getting auto denial.
At this time, only Google Maps Team & business owners can add & edit it through Google Business Profile: https://www.google.com/intl/en/business/
