What is the name of the school founded by Charles Xavier in the X-Men films?

Charles Xavier’s school is called Xavier’s School for Gifted Youngsters in the X-Men films.

The school operates from the Xavier Mansion in Westchester County, New York. It provides education and a safe home for young mutants while also serving as the headquarters of the X-Men. Xavier presents the institution as a place where students can learn to control their abilities and develop confidence.

The mansion is closely associated with the team’s training facilities, underground technology, and danger room. Its role changes across the films, but it remains one of the franchise’s most consistent locations. In some stories, the school is damaged or temporarily closed because of attacks and political conflict.

The name is sometimes shortened to Xavier’s School or called the Xavier Institute, especially by fans familiar with the comics. Those labels refer to related versions of the same fictional institution, but the full school name used in the films is Xavier’s School for Gifted Youngsters.
