Time Lord Academy

The Time Lord Academy was a school most young Time Lords attended to further their educations. According to the Tenth Doctor, children " were taken from their families at the age of eight" to begin their instruction. Part of the initiation into the academy involved looking into the Untempered Schism. (TV: The Sound of Drums) Time Lords spent "centuries" at the Academy. (COMIC: Mortal Beloved) There was a TARDIS cradle in the Time Lord Academy for students who had formed a symbiotic bond, but hadn't left the Academy yet. (AUDIO: The Apocalypse Element) At the Academy, the Deca called themselves Theta Sigma (the Doctor), Koschei (the Master) Mortimus(the Monk) and Ushas (the Rani) and the War Cheif. (PROSE: Divided Loyalties) Tebediatroculozan attended the Academy at the same time as the Doctor. (PROSE: Seven Deadly Sins)

When a Gallifreyan had been granted the rank of Junior Time Lord in the Time Lord Academy, they received their symbiotic nuclei. (PROSE: Interference - Book One)


 * The Lord Chancellor may have been the nominal head of the Academy. (AUDIO: Gallifrey series)

There were several chapters within the Time Lord Academy. These included:
