I've thought about this too, and often wondered why the name of the 
school wasn't on the piece of paper.  The only thing I could think of 
was that the name of the school was written in invisible ink, so the 
Goblet of Fire could recognise it, but that it wasn't visible to 
human eyes so Dumbledore wouldn't see it.
