Basically, if it's with the S-H sound without the K sound of the letter 'C', then you wouldn't say the word "school" in the same way. Would sound silly

"sh" and "sk" are both legit. While it may sound silly to you to hear the one you are not used to, it is the other way around for someone else. If you do not know whether you are going to offend someone or make them laugh, use "agenda" or "itinerary"

Yes you do and you kind of half to pronounce it. Quickly say "good appetite" out loud. You'll see that it's sounds the same as saying goo dapetie. The only people who might not say it are those who have a british or australian accent.

The accepted American way of pronouncing "schedule" is with a "sk" sound as in "school." If your from England, though, you'll most likely pronounce it with a "sh" sound.

I like to throw out a "sh" every once in awhile just to sound smart.

Depends on where you're from. I've heard the Brits pronounce the "sch" with a soft sound, like "shirt." But we in the U.S. typically use the hard sound, like you said with "school."

The standard pronunciation depends on where you are from. People from the US and people from Canada pronounce it very differently. Both are correct.

Americans typically say "sked" while Brits typically say "shed". Both are correct.
