magic school

Where spells taught

A magic school is a fictional institution where students learn to practice magic—casting spells, brewing potions, and mastering supernatural arts.

The concept gained massive cultural prominence through Harry Potter's Hogwarts but appears across fantasy literature and games: She's writing a magic school novel, another magic school anime.

The setting typically combines ordinary school tropes (classes, rivalries, coming-of-age drama) with fantastical elements.
