Hi!

This probably happens because `pydantic.fields.Schema` was deprecated in version 1.8 of Pydantic. In your virtual environment, you could install `pydantic==1.7` first, then install Prodigy, and hopefully it should work.

This has been fixed in Prodigy v1.10.7 - the related thread is here for background information: [ImportError: cannot import name 'Schema' from 'pydantic'](https://support.prodi.gy/t/importerror-cannot-import-name-schema-from-pydantic/3948)

Let us know if you'd still run into issues though!
