I don't know any school in particular, but I recommend northern cities (Mandarin originated from there). I was touring southern China, particularly in the province of GuangDong(Cantonese is the local dialect there), during summer of 2006 and while they could speak Mandarin, it was at times difficult to converse. I'd imagine language schools in Beijing to be good places for learning the most-accurately-accented Mandarin, although the city itself is probably one of the most polluted in the country!
