Bonjour Steven !
Here we used the impersonal "il" (same one as in "il fait beau"), which can also be replaced by "c'est":
"C'est important qu'il apprenne ses leçons."
Note that the "il" version is considered as more elegant.
Have a look at the related lesson: Il est (important) que + Le Subjonctif = It is (important) for (someone) to ...">Il est (important) que + Le Subjonctif = It is (important) for (someone) to ...">Il est (important) que + Le Subjonctif = It is (important) for (someone) to ...">Il est (important) que + Le Subjonctif = It is (important) for (someone) to ...
I hope that's helpful!
À bientôt !

A bit off topic, but...
In the third example, "Il est important qu'il apprenne ses lecons", how come it's not "c'est important"?
This question relates to:
French lesson "Conjugate regular verbs in Le Subjonctif Présent (subjunctive mood)"
