## Magic schools

A magic school is an institution for learning magic, appearing in works of fantasy depicting worlds in which magic exists and in which there is an organized society of magicians or wizards who pass on their knowledge systematically. It may also be a school that is magically protected or a Faculty of Magic in a university which also teaches other subjects. More loosely, also a place where a single wizard teaches an apprentice can count as a magic school.
