Oh, yeah. I forgot about the episode with the oddly out of place music video.

Stevie Nicks is going to turn you into a newt.

Misfits and Magic is a great show for those who like TTRPG liveplays....

Hard to go wrong with Dimension 20 generally, although they jump genres nearly every season.

Can't believe I forgot about Owl House! The witch school isn't that important in the grand scheme of things, but it's there and frames a lot of the earlier action in the series.

I'm thinking of her restaurant, Stevie Nicks' Fajita Roundup where you can order a burrito with a side of witchcraft.

, other than Earthsea, Diskworld and The Magicians TV series, I don’t recall encountering formal schools of magic in fantasy fiction beyond the implications that some exist/existed in a given setting.

In the 80s, the Dragonlance Towers of High Sorcery (Hickmans & Weiss) and the Riftwar Cycle's Kelewan Assembly (Feist) were school, political body, and test of worthiness all rolled up into one.

Technically not really a school, but the So You Want To Be A Wizard series is fun.

Rothfuss's "Name of the WInd" is set in a magic school. I just wish I liked the second book anywhere near as much as I liked the first. "The Slow Regard of Silent Things" is set there too, but not really.

You could mine any of the Star Wars Padawan material for inspiration if you wanted something not seen elsewhere.

You have to tell the wizarding school adventures entirely in flashbacks in either a space bounty hunter campaign or military campaign, though.
