Shivani Bajwa

Shivani Singh (née Bajwa) was a teacher at Coal Hill School, and a brief companion of the First Doctor.

Early life
Shivani immigrated to the United Kingdom as a child in the 1950s with her mother and father. (PROSE: Doctor Who and the Horror of Coal Hill)

Adventure with the Doctor
As an adult, she taught at Coal Hill School. In 1963, she met the First Doctor when he came to the school looking for his granddaughter. Together they fought an invasion of aliens that looked like wolves. Shivani briefly transformed into one of the creatures before the Doctor reminded her of her humanity and enabled her to transform back into herself. After the invasion, she sent a constable to check on the Doctor at Susan's address and thanked for putting the ladder in the supply room that aided their escape.

Later life
Over the next fifty years of her life she met the Doctor many more times throughout his various incarnations and he always brought her a fresh bouquet of white roses. She once noted when the Twelfth Doctor met up with her without Sarah Jane Smith. She and the Twelfth Doctor then shared tea on the roof of Coal Hill School and she informed him that the school was being torn down to build Coal Hill Academy.
