School Curriculum

[Jointlock]

Just to get an idea for everyone what each school is like I was wondering what was taught at each rank? Mostly pertaining to jointlocks. You can explain whether kicks and strikes are taught progressively through the ranks or if you learn the basic 25 kicks at white belt. Please post as much as you feel necessary.
