The Professor's Institute Academy

The Professor's Institute Academy, more commonly known as the PIA, is a school for Shadow World students, and is run by The Professor in London, England. Notable students are: Lillian Hines;

The PIA was founded by The Professor after leaving the Hoko Tribe, after realising that all new Shadowhunters would be hunted, and he decided to invite Downworlders in later, and opened officially nearly a year later. The Academy has inspired many other safe houses and facilities for Shadow Worlders.

The Academy is hidden in an abandoned warehouse/ factory and has two floors: one for housing and the other for training. The Main Goal for the school is to teach the students how to defend themselves against people who want to harm them and to bring balance to the world.
