Generally speaking, "at school" means the physical place.
Example 1.

B: He is at school now.
"In school" can mean both the physical place or the term of study. Hence "in school' can also be used in Example 1 and in the following example.
Example 2,
A: Where are you working now?
B: Oh, I'm not working yet. I'm still in school.
