Not sure on ideal but the build i play with which i have a lot of fun with is a mix of schools.

Probably use:

Conjuration: 70 %

Destruction: 20%

Illusion: 10%

Use this with one handed, archery, sneak and also dabble in alchmy and enchanting.

Jack of all trades...master of none? You decide....

Alchemy offers lots of buffs for mages. Restore magicka can be a must for repeated destruction casting, fortify destruction can give a nice damage bonus, and fortify health might just stop your unarmoured mage dying from one hit, and those are just the obvious ones.

I use shrouded robes/light armor/mage robes, the +100% mana regen mask, and destruction spell fireball (lvl 42 destruction), glauder amulet and enchanted gear. I also use fast healing and some conjuration magic for miscellaneous uses
