Hello there, after more than 2 years in the planning it is less than 24 hours since I stumbled across Discourse and I’m still a bit gobsmacked at having found what seems to be the perfect solution! I have quite a complex structure in mind and was hoping to ask for some pointers if I may. I want a …

So different domains (bigtown/school) point to the same forum but in different groups?

You will want to start with Install Discourse in Under 30 Minutes which gets you underway. Just follow those directions and you’ll start to become acquainted with how discourse can be installed. The multisite installation is similar but more complicated.
