A schema validates a dictionary of values, applying different validators (be key) to the different values. If allow_extra_fields=True, keys without validators will be allowed; otherwise they will raise Invalid. If filter_extra_fields is set to true, then extra fields are not passed back in the results.

Validators are associated with keys either with a class syntax, or as keyword arguments (class syntax is usually easier). Something like:

class MySchema(Schema):
    name = Validators.PlainText()
    phone = Validators.PhoneNumber()

These will not be available as actual instance variables, but will be collected in a dictionary. To remove a validator in a subclass that is present in a superclass, set it to None, like:

class MySubSchema(MySchema):
    name = None
