Bancroft Academy is a school Gwen wanted to attend in Ghostfreaked Out.
History[]
Background[]
Bancroft Academy seems to be a well-funded or private school, since the students wear uniforms. They also have high-quality laboratories.
Ben 10[]
During a tour of the academy in Ghostfreaked Out, Ben thought he had heard Ghostfreak and while watching, he saw his shadow momentarily turn into Ghostfreak before returning to normal. In the science lab, Ben saw Ghostfreak again, this time in a beaker, and destroyed it. Flames erupted from the Bunsen burners, breaking more beakers and setting off the fire alarm. Ben blamed Ghostfreak, but Ben's behavior was making Tiffany start to think that Gwen wasn't Bancroft material. In return, Gwen was about to punch Ben until they heard a noise coming from the gym. It was the Circus Freaks, and they had come to rob the school. After Zs'Skayr died and the Circus Freakswere arrested, Gwen didn't think that she had a chance of getting into the school, but Ben reassured her that she didn't need it to prove that she's smart and stated that none of the students would have been able to stop Zs'Skayr or the Circus Freaks, while she could. Gwen thanked Ben for the compliment and hugged him, much to Ben's discomfort, though he laughed it off once Gwen was out of earshot. At some point, Dr. Viktor somehow stole most of the parts from the Bancroft Academy's clock tower so that way he could use a machine to reanimate Zs'Skayr in The Return.
