Children of Gallifrey were taken from their families at the age of eight, to enter the Academy. The Tenth Doctor [The Sound of Drums [src]]

The Time Lord Academy was a place where most young Time Lords attended to further their educations. Children began instruction there at the age of 8. Part of the initiation into the academy involved looking into the Untempered Schism. (DW: The Sound of Drums) Time Lords spend "centuries" at the Academy. (DWM: Mortal Beloved)

The Lord Chancellor appears to be the nominal head of the Academy. (BFG: Gallifrey (audio series))

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

At the induction ceremony for the Academy all Time Lords say:

"I swear to protect the ancient Law of Gallifrey with all my might and brain. I will to the end of my days with justice and with honour temper my actions and my thoughts." (DW: Shada)
