How to Use It
When referring to a school in a general sense, or an institute focused on education, use 教育機関 (kyouiku kikan). It's a broad term that encompasses various educational establishments.
Don't confuse 教育機関 (kyouiku kikan) with just 学校 (gakkou). While a school is a type of 教育機関, the latter is a more comprehensive term. For instance, a cram school or a language institute would also be 教育機関, but not necessarily 学校. Using 学校 when you mean a broader educational organization might be too specific.
