It's like a normal school. Drab classrooms with blackboards, hallways with lockers — and a danger room. Maybe even a hidden hangar. Oh, and the students all have superpowers, of course. This is Superhero School, where young superhumans wake up, go to learn about their powers and how to use them for good. A subtrope of Extranormal Institute, where it's often not the place that's unusual, but the students. And sometimes the faculty. Often inverted by introducing a supervillain school. You will also see instances where the school takes a neutral posture about heroism or villainy, focusing on teaching the students to control and make the most of their superpowers - with the result that aspiring heroes end up in classes next to wannabee villains, possibly among a larger group of kids who just want to get on with their lives. Maybe we can excuse it for possibly being an Elaborate University High. Often has Danger Room Cold Open scenes. Badass Teachers are a given. In stories where this is the primary setting, you can expect there to be at least one significant case of Power Incontinence and/or missing Required Secondary Powers (as seen in the Trope Maker, X-Men, with Cyclops), and numerous instances of How Do I Shot Web? and Boxing Lessons for Superman, as ways of justifying the trope. May also include classes on the Mundane Utility of different power sets if the focus isn't solely on heroics. Compare with Academy of Adventure, Wizarding School, Ninja School, Hero Academy, and All-Ghouls School. A dark take on this trope can turn it into a School for Scheming. See also Superhero Capital of the World. |

For the first 7 issues it functioned as a school where the original five X-Men learned how to master the powers, afterwards the Xavier Academy jumped around a bit between being a Superhero School, and a superhero base which happened to be disguised as a school, largely because until Kitty Pryde joined the Chris Claremont "all-new all-different" X-Men's ages ranged from the 20s onwards, with none of them even of college age. In the New Mutants, Xavier's school functions as both a superhero school, and a base, with even some of the X-Men helping to train the New Mutants. The films cemented the concept in people's minds by depicting the X-Men as teachers of a large non-superhero student body, and the Comic Books followed suit. Xavier's school now has a lot of non-superhero mutants of all ages, learning to control their powers as well as reading, writing, and 'rithmetic. A few of them 'graduate' to X-Men status. There's also a relatively new X-comic focusing on the students (of course, trouble seems to find them) that's pretty much a Spiritual Successor to Generation X and New Mutants. Its title changes a lot, though. | |

X-Men: Professor Charles Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters is the Trope Maker. Depending on the continuity, Emma Frost's school, the Massachusetts Academy, may count as a supervillain school if she is Xavier's foe. For the first 7 issues it functioned as a school where the original five X-Men learned how to master the powers, afterwards the Xavier Academy jumped around a bit between being a Superhero School, and a superhero base which happened to be disguised as a school, largely because until Kitty Pryde joined the Chris Claremont "all-new all-different" X-Men's ages ranged from the 20s onwards, with none of them even of college age.

Xavier's school now has a lot of non-superhero mutants of all ages, learning to control their powers as well as reading, writing, and 'rithmetic. A few of them 'graduate' to X-Men status. There's also a relatively new X-comic focusing on the students (of course, trouble seems to find them) that's pretty much a Spiritual Successor to Generation X and New Mutants. Its title changes a lot, though. It got to the point where Xavier's 'school' was so chock-full of adult superheroes that they changed the name from Xavier's School for Gifted Youngers to the Xavier Institute for Higher Learning, making it a superhero college, and opened a franchise with the formerly evil rival Massachusetts Academy for Generation X. Played straighter with the original (pre-Wolverine) X-Men, who were of high school age at the time the group was formed. The fallout of the Schism storyline had Wolverine establishing the Jean Grey Institute for Higher Learning, largely featuring students from the defunct Xavier Institute. Meanwhile, the fallout of Avengers vs. X-Men has a rogue Cyclops, Emma Frost, and Magneto running the "New Charles Xavier School for Mutants". While unlike any previous incarnation its existence is secret and it doesn't present itself as a real private school (Cyclops and his team being outlaws and all), there are classrooms and the senior members do teach newly manifested mutants. |

The Xavier Institute also features in X-Men: Evolution in its role as a Superhero School; however, the X-Men also attend regular school at Bayville High. How the kids going to two schools is explained to parents and such who don't know what Xavier's really is is never addressed. For the first two seasons it's the usual high school antics complicated by keeping their powers a secret while season three focuses on what happens when the Masquerade breaks and the other students find out their secret. At the Institute, they learn power control, at school they just have normal school. The Institute teaches them how to use their powers and fit in. |

Tiger & Bunny has The Hero Academy where young NEXT (what the series calls individuals who develop superpowers) can learn how to use their abilities and become Corporate Sponsored Super Heroes. Although notably attending is not a mandatory requirement to becoming a hero, and of the two title characters, only one is a graduate. It's implied the academy wasn't even around yet when the other title character first started in the hero business. Also many of the students have abilities that are more in line with Blessed with Suck or would not be flashy enough to pique the interest of a sponsor company. | |

Freedom City Play By Post maintains one of these, that continuity's version of the Claremont Academy mentioned above under Mutants & Masterminds. Claremont, a friendly place in a friendly city, is run by Duncan Summers, the local Expy of the Neal Adams-era Batman, with the standard tropes of the Superhero School genre. Only makes occasional use of canon characters, as of course they're all NPCs. Is somewhat more realistic than some super-schools in that kiddie supervillians get counseling. | |

PS238 — a superhero public school. And the Praetorian Academy, PS238's rival which is heavily troped to be a supervillain school: you've got your Evil Headmaster, your Military Discipline, your Faceless Minion Masks, your overly-militaristic student codenames, and of course the overwhelming arrogance that they are far superior to their rival school. Also, they cheat at soccer. Which is eventually subverted; the discipline and the minion masks, as it turns out, is not to create supervillains; it's because the headmaster uses them as methods to instill order and curtail what he views as tendencies towards becoming "uncontrolled" metahumans. Or so he says. He's a former US Senator with a strong anti-metahuman bias who got bonded to an experimental AI. Who knows just how sane he is anymore. |

Gladstone's School for World Conquerors by Mark Andrew Smith and Armand Villavert, a comic series published by Image Comics in 2011 and collected as a graphic novel in 2012. Though this series also arguably fits in the Academy of Evil category, there are (spoiler) reasons why it also belongs here. | |

Kitty Burrows' The Posterchildren deals with a large group of characters connected to a school for mutants. The main book focuses on a group of students, but there are also stories focusing on parents, alumni, teachers, and people with even more tenuous connections. | |

Super Powereds has five universities in the US that offer the Hero Certification Program for Supers, who wish to become fully-licensed Heroes. The tetralogy is focused on the HCP at Lander University (Lander, CA), although the others are mentioned in spin-offs and on the author's website: Korman University (Big Applesauce), Sizemore Tech (Chicago), West Private University (Orlando), and Overton University (Overton, TX). Other countries have varying means of certifying Supers for Hero work, and there are no international agreements to allow Heroes to operate internationally. HCP involves Training from Hell in order to weed out the merely willing from the willing and able. Hundreds of Supers apply each year, only scores are accepted into each school's HCP, only to either quit or be cut from the program. It's possible for those, who haven't made the cut for next year to re-apply, competing with students from the year behind them for spots. Each school graduates only ten Heroes per year. Besides regular (non-Super) classes, HCP students also have several hours of exhausting gym each day to prepare their bodies and to hone their fighting skills. Additionally, as the HCP students advance in years, their classes grow more specialized based on their abilities and powers (Close Combat, Ranged Combat, Weapons, Focus, Control, and Subtlety). Also, while in in the program, students are required to keep the fact that they're in the HCP (or even that they're Supers) a secret from everyone outside the program, which means they can't use their powers in public or attract unwanted attention. HCP facilities are typically located underground, away from prying eyes, with elevators leading to it from dorms with HCP students. During graduation, each new Hero wears a ceremonial white cape. Also, this is where they register their new Hero names (names have to be unique, except in case of legacy names, but those require permission from the original). After that, recent graduates are required to undergo a two-year internship under an experienced Hero. | |

Talentless Nana is set in a specialized school to train "Talented"/superpowered individuals to fight against a vaguely defined "Enemy of Humanity". In truth, the "Talented" individuals are the "Enemy of Humanity" — or, at least, that's how the rest of the world views them; the academy is a government program intended to gather and isolate these dangerous individuals and eliminate them while they're unaware. | |

The main setting for My Hero Academia is U.A. High School, which is considered the best superhero school in Japan. Main character Izuku Midoriya goes here to learn to become a professional hero alongside his classmates. While the school is mainly known for its Hero department, it also has other departments for General Education (for students whose abilities aren't considered fitting enough to be heroes or those who are aiming for different careers), Support (for students who are learning to develop gadgets and equipment for heroes to use on the battlefield), and Management (for students who are aiming for work in the business side of heroes, like managing hero agencies, executive producing heroes, and even venture capitalism). There are other Pro Hero schools in the country as well, such as Shiketsu High and Ketsubutsu Academy. | |

In The Secrets of Drearcliff Grange School, Drearcliff Grange is a 1930s girls' school which takes "talented" students. Combined with Boarding School of Horrors for a parody of Girls' School stories of the period. (Incidentally, the headmistress makes it clear that she doesn't much care if one of her girls becomes a supervillain instead of a superhero, just so long as she makes use of her talent and doesn't settle for being mundane. The Haunting of Drearcliff Grange School suggests that girls are at least encouraged to be a Paladin rather than a Wrong 'Un, and introduces Drearcliff's Academy of Evil counterpart Draycott's House of Reform.) | |

In Ultimate Spider-Man, Peter Parker has to go to one after he gets out of school. His teachers? Thor, Captain America, and Iron Man. Averted when they actually sit down and try to teach him. Iron Man basically admits he has no lesson plan and his "Training" quickly just becomes him and Peter hanging out and talking about technology. Captain America (who actually suggested Peter be forced to give up being Spider-Man) only takes him out into a veteran cemetery and try to shame him into quitting. Thor, meanwhile, never gets a chance to talk to Peter. | |

The Avengers: Avengers: The Initiative program is somewhat like this, but blurs the line heavily between "school" and "boot camp". Not many other examples listed here take young teens and put sniper rifles in their hands... Initiative's successor Avengers Academy is a more traditional example, except it's more about training kids so they wouldn't become supervillains. In a later arc, they moved the Academy to the old West Coast Avengers compound and added a bunch of other teen heroes as students. Avengers Arena later introduced Captain Britain's Braddock Academy, the Avengers Academy's Transatlantic Equivalent. Infinity: The Hunt then introduced several other international schools for superheroes (or villains): The Wakandan School for Alternative Studies, the Latverian School of Science and the Pan-Asian School for the Unusually Gifted. |

The eponymous school in Gakuen Alice. While the "hero" part is debatable, it's a school for people with powers, most of which easily qualify as "super". | |

X-Men: Apocalypse: This is the only entry in the First Class trilogy where we get to see a fully operational Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters. Since mutants aren't hiding from humans in the Alternate Timeline after 1973, the school's enrollment is much greater than what we saw in the original trilogy, plus there is generally less angst among the youngsters due to society being more accepting of them (relatively speaking). | |
