Uprise of schools of magic

It was enough to think about it, by reforming the teaching methods of magic, some managed to create "Specialists".
- You know, those who always has good excuses when things goes wrong.
More specifically, those who were dissatisfied with traditional teaching methods managed to produce results. Unfortunately, they are also excluded members of schools, radicals, marginal and scums. Actually, they are evil.

Nécromancer
You can imagine the kind of effects they look for. But at a certain point they have to get more offensiv. Here is some exemple :
Entombment, same parameters than, let's say fireball but targets are forced into the ground on 20 feets. 1d6 dmg/lvl

Enchanter
Bend people to their will. Making them do the dirty job and stay away from troubles. Nice guys.
+1 spell per spell lvl. and/or -1 on targets saves

Sorcerer/warlock/tempester
Summoners that are gone wrong, their favorite choices are devils, demons or else. They managed to produce "deals" with that kind of funny customers. Some involving killing young boys and virgins. Creatures from lower planes summoned that way are suppose to obey. Or pretend to.

War wizard
Invocation/Evocation, they have a more aventurous and dangerous life. It tends to get shorter too.
 +1 spell per spell lvl. And/or, -1 on targets saves
