Basically, if an area way(e.g. amenity=place_of_worship, amenity=school, etc.) has an extra barrier=fence tag onto it, the openstreetmap plugin fails to import that way into a polygon. This got me scratching my head for a little while as to why a few school grounds were not imported.

I'm attaching a .osm that shows both area ways with amenity=place_of_worship with and without the barrier=fence to test out.

Note: it's also happening on barrier=wall.

OpenStreetMap wiki mentions that barrier={fence,wall} can be applied to areas: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:barrier%3Dfence

With your test case, you are confusing the importer: amenity=school can be an area (or a point), but barrier=fence is more likely a line. To avoid such pitfalls, you can add area=yes to your object.

Or use Add Vector Layer. The GDAL OSM driver seems to handle your case correctly.
