While there are specialist teachers of particular subjects in the Schola Progenium, most of the instructors are Drill Abbots, who are ordained priests of the [[Ecclesiarchy]], but they get excused from all the onerous jobs like leading Friday prayer, taking Sunday mass, performing weddings, and baptising babies.

Instead, their job is to teach the [[Imperial Cult|Imperial Creed]], physical education, weapons training, and also to enforce discipline.

Typical of the 41st millennium, there is no standard of basic human rights, so discipline at school can take a multitude of forms, from branding to sleep deprivation, even battering them on the head with a sledgehammer if they think the student needs a firm hand. Handing "live" weaponry to abuse victims is standard Imperial logic at its best.

Drill Abbots can also come from a variety of backgrounds, despite being priests. Many are transferred over from the [[Imperial Guard]], where a number of desirable skills are transferable to the role, making many of them Drill Instructors as well as Abbots. [[Adepta Sororitas]] are assigned as well, being exemplars of faith they are welcomed. Somehow it is doubtful any members of the Argent Shroud are part of it, though. Those one's are genuine altruists and would probably blam anyone that hit a child.
