Log in to Vertabelo and open your model. Select a table or view, and then expand "Additional properties" in the right panel:

There, you'll see the "Schema" field that you can activate by clicking "Set":

If the table was created without specifying any individual schema name, leave the "Schema" field empty (by default, such schema is named "public"). Otherwise, enter the schema name.

The generated SQL script will contain the schema name:

CREATE TABLE schema_name.table_name (...);

If you would like to add a clause creating a schema, you can do this in "Additional SQL scripts".

Make sure that no object is selected in your database model, and then expand "Additional SQL scripts" in the left panel:
