I think these schools are a hint about Celestia. There are trainers all over Celestia where you can learn the spells used by the characters in Wysteria.

I think it is odd that the pigswick folk don't cast in those schools of magic, just the seven ones from Ravenwood.

They are the same schools at Ravenwood, just with a different name. and nope, the teachers do not teach. Alot of players on another thread say they're lazy.

Yes, I think that it's very odd that they make schools, but no teaching ...................

They should atleast give a new spell card or something atleast so all they do is give you quest and thats it not much. Atleast give us 1 card 1 but they don't well they can updated and you might learn one thing or two from them.

They are the same schools as the ones in Wizard City, just with different names and symbols(Life/Earth, Death/Spirit, etc.). But I do wish they would give us a new spell.

Its pointless I think, since they don't have too much of a purpose other than just being there.

Well, as far as the game's canon goes, the instructors don't really teach magic (they basically teach various magical theories and concepts). So, unless KI decides on a storyline like we wizards have to go back to Pigswick to retrieve some ancient mystical tomes because the instructors there actually want to teach real magic now, and after you get them, you can learn one or two spells from them as a thank-you for getting them back (or whatever :P).

They're all the same schools just different names.

Balance: Equilibrium ( I can't believe I spelled it right.)
Fire: Ember
Ice: Frost
Storm: Tempest
Myth: Chaos
Life: Earth
Death: Spirit

Why should you learn from them if you already have the spells? It's only a different name.

well I believe there is reason. Pigswick wants to be different from Ravenwood, by teaching other magic. Since there are no other schools except Balance, Ice, Fire, Storm, Myth, Life and Death, (we do not know about celestial spells yet) they decided to change the names of the schools. The reason they do not teach............ welll.... uh.... *shrug* I don't have a clue.
