Take a look at http://org-id.guide/results?structure=all&coverage=GB&sector=education

It seems that GB-UKPRN (50) is ranked above GB-EDU (61)

Im not sure this is intended?

Now I see https://github.com/org-id/register Im unsure if this was the right place to post - although I do think this is about the code for the website rather than the register

Quote from https://github.com/OpenDataServices/org-ids/issues/112#issuecomment-321525562:

These big numbers are quality scores rather than relevance scores, right? I.e. they’re about list quality (license etc) rather than relevance to the user’s search.

So I think the ranking is by relevance to the search criteria, whereas the big numbers are about list quality (i.e. orthogonal). So that’s the explanation for this.
