Preposition confusion - Do you learn somthing 'at' school OR 'in' school?


I know that we use the preposition at to describe a place. I learned French at school is one of the examples I can think of.


I came across two examples that use the preposition 'in' with 'schools' in the context of 'learning'.


Example #1 from the Business Illinois website:

Example #2 from The WorldBank Blog

The use that I had in my mind is here on the New York Times



Should Parents Control What Kids Learn at School?
