I need this for an adventure im writing for our shared TSR Marvel 60s spy-fi game.
I will be doing some more spyfi stuff and finishing a table i started 6 years ago for Bond villains and recent world events have inspired me to finish it. Ive been reading uk kids' annuals from the 60s to 80s from British Weekly Comics. Plenty of kids with one weird power. So this is full of that and other UK kids and spyfy shows. A bit of Marvel and Teen Titans.
I'm playing more than running games lots of late.
I think ive improved a bit as a player.
Our usual jan hard-to-catch-up period has actually been the best in years.
Some players' kids a bit older now possibly helps.
In WW2 superheroes took their sidekicks into battle, and post-war, this practice has been banned by the UN Superhuman Test Treaty. Recently, a new generation of child superhumans has become old enough to cause trouble as vigilantes. Their numbers have grown, so the Dept of Metahuman Affairs has created a truant squad to round them up for their own good. As no one system could be agreed on as a sole methodology, various thinktanks and organisations funded and established various schools. Some were for more dangerous children. Schools are to make sure kids dont become supervillains. Some think love and understanding works others prefer sport and beatings. Staff are mostly spies.
The Truant squad inspect schools quarterly for MOD Ministry of Defence. They have plans to raid every school in preparation and to imprison all students to assess them for potential villainy. There are UN inspections in the less secret schools that also investigate eugenics and racism. Some of the UN teams are former Nazi Hunters.
The oldest school run by Ministry of Defence clearly failed early on as its first WW2 born class ran wild as superhero team before they were supposed to on their own. They were a handful. Other failures created supervillains. So for the new generation has all kinds of organisations and government departments creating many schools to test which is the most successful at creating well-adjusted, responsible superhumans or black ops agents who can hide from public. Too much spy or millitary training has created problems. Most schools have only a dozen students in a limited age range. Only a few of the biggest have 40-200 students.
Due to the time period their are remnants of racism and eugenics still being cleaned up. Most of the larger schools are co-ed and of a variety of nationalities. Smaller ones are more likely to be specialised in a limited age, gender and mostly UK descent. There are many failed experiments locked in cells and containment fields.
This could be for backgrounds for characters, a campaign of inspecting schools, a student campaign or just for investigative or combat missions. Players could be humans managing super youths. In a hero campagn the state might lumber you with some scheme to match heroes up with delinquents. Or even a class of them. Could overlap with my super hero old folks home which the players liked so much they took over management.

In the UK, Robot Andy solves problems on his own, but there are some child "robots" being socialised before getting combat upgrades. Some robots clanker students raised with superhumans will get body upgrades when deemed stable and mature.
Some schools specialise in a type of powers like Corky Wilde's School for Cat Children or Mrs Wilson's School for Extraordinarily Infants (taming terrible terrorist toddlers since 1904).
There is a whole school of super monkeys and apes from early tests, and many "students" are in their 20s now. A few have managed to live in a normal society with some prejudice. Most live ordinary working-class lives but a few accountants and academics.
There are martial arts schools producing extraordinary athletes, they dont qualify as superhuman and thus not included.
Some children manifest powers and attribute a separate personality to them, even as far to manifest as "magic item" or "pet". As they grow and receive training, they will overcome these limitations.
Names with illiteration, rhymes, puns, metaphores or jokes are common.
Most get new names when adult.
