No Schools of Thought ever existed in Islam at the time of Prophet Muhammad (pbuh). Neither his exemplary practices nor his Hadith (the Sunnah) were put in writing during his lifetime.

By the year 250H the four Sunni Schools of Thought were popularized and patronized by the Abbasi government, as well as by their own enthusiasts, thus spreading in various areas of the Islamic Ummah at variable speed. The existing Schools of Thought by this stretch of time were: Ja'fari, as headed by Imam AlSaadiq. Hanafi, as headed by Abu Hanifa, AlNa'maan. Maaliki, as headed by Malik Ibn Anas. Shafi'i, as headed by Ibn Idrees AlShafi'i. Hanbali, as headed by Ahmad Ibn Hanbal. * +
