Best Answer

The answer that you're looking for is "Rabbi Johanan ben Zakkai."

However, there is a mistake in your question, or its perceived answer. Rabbi Johanan did not found the Torah-academy in Yavneh. Rather, it had already existed, and he bolstered it with hundreds of additional disciples.

The answer that you're looking for is "Rabbi Johanan ben Zakkai."

However, there are two mistakes in your question, or its perceived answer. One is that Rabbi Johanan did not found the Torah-academy in Yavneh. Rather, it had already existed, and he bolstered it with hundreds of additional disciples.

The other mistake is in the implication that only one such school was founded. In fact, thousands of Rabbis, and some women too such as Sarah Schenirer, have founded important Torah academies. These include Abraham, Moses, Samuel, Hezekiah, Ezra, Hillel, Rashi, and many more.
