The adjective 'schulisch' (school-related) almost always comes directly before a noun (attributive use). Use after the noun with a verb like 'sein' (to be) (predicative use) is very rare.

academic
'akademisch' and 'schulisch' both refer to education, but to different areas. 'akademisch' fits universities, colleges, and scholarship. 'schulisch' fits school, meaning lessons, grades, classes, or tasks done by school students. Learners may confuse the words because both have to do with learning and education. The practical rule is simple: for universities and scholarship, use 'akademisch'; for school, use 'schulisch'.
