The Officer Training School is a facility in the X-COM base, were you can buy 'tactics' that improves your strike team.
Some tactics require you to have a soldier reach a particular rank in order to unlock it.
Your base starts without an OTS on Classic and Impossible difficulty levels. One of your Soldiers has to reach Sergeant rank to unlock the OTS for building.
The improvements require the continued existence of the Training School. So all purchased improvements would be disabled if the school was demolished.
