Hogwarts - An Explanation
---
Hi! this is me forming a schedule to detail how i imagine daily life would consist of in Hogwarts! (because im a nerd and this is what i choose to do with my time)
Note: that this schedule is not canonical, it's something im using for a fic and probably will use in future ones, although highly based off of canon information that we have about how Hogwarts works, not all of this is accurate,
I also give anyone who wants to use this full permission to!
---
Here is a time table i created of how a weekly schedule for a First year would look like:
- I'm using a Block and Period system for this, as to not be confused, Periods are specific to each day where as Blocks are specific to each class!
- All meal periods are school wide, although attendance is not mandatory (except for the feast once first arriving on sept 1st)
- i am also using a system where the days switch off as in a A day and B day schedule, with Wednesday being a day where they have all of their classes
- A day consists of A Block-D Block, each Period is Two hours long,
- B day consists of E Block-H Block
- I Block is the Astronomy class which takes place at a different time than other classes, so it isn't included in this, it is shown three separate times in the chart but the student should only have this class twice a week at most
- On a Wednesday, or an All Block day, they have all blocks, though the class periods are only one hour long instead of two hours like on a normal A and B day
- Class hours go from 7:30am-4:30pm everyday
- Curfew is from 9:00pm-6:00am, though this does not apply to students who are in Astronomy between these times
- Curfew on Saturdays and Fridays (although not said in the chart for convenience) is from 10:30 pm-6:30am, as it is the weekend
- All meals are at the same times everyday besides weekends, where the periods of availability of food in the Great Hall is longer than usual although starting at the same time
Now, the Block Schedule:
- In the charts above, i have an example of how these blocks work, the first chart shows First Year, the second, Second Year, and then the Third, well...you can kinda guess
- The classes that are highlighted with grey are the main courses that every Hogwarts student are required to take each year:
- Transfiguration
- Potions
- History of Magic
- Defense Against the Dark Arts (DADA)
- Charms
- Herbology
- Astronomy
- These classes stay in a students schedule every year, if we look at the chart that shows the First Year schedule, it has Flying as one of the classes:
- When you are a first year you are required to take one class of Flying, although it is an extracurricular course without an O.W.L. (Ordinary Wizarding Levels) exam,
This is what the first chart looks like filled out using this block system:
- Going back to the previous charts, In the second year chart I have removed Flying and replaced it with a Study Period, you can see that theres is another one of those there already as well
- Once entering their third year, a student in Hogwarts gets to pick from a selection of electives, two of them to take (these classes, although having O.W.L. exams, do not require you to stay in them, and you can drop these classes whenever)
- Care of Magical Creatures (CMC)
- Divination
- Arithmancy
- Muggle Studies
- Ancient Runes
- These, plus the required courses make up all 12 O.W.L.'s
- The hypothetical student used in the third year chart has chosen Divination and CMC as their electives, so they replace the once Study Periods with those classes
- Although they lose Study Periods, they are provided time after classes and on the weekends to complete school work and study (during exam season I imagine that teachers provide students with being able to use whole periods to study for that specific class)
- A student has until their fifth year to start thinking about O.W.L.s and change electives if needed or wanted
- On the other hand, because of this system of scheduling, it makes wanting to do more than two electives difficult, if not impossible
- This is is seen with Hermione in poa where Mcgonagall spoke to the ministry and was able to give her a time turner so she could attend all of her classes
- Using a time turner (in this situation to get all 12 O.W.L.s) would most likely, look something like this:
(sorry for the weird cropping on this one)
- The blocks that have two classes would be times where a student would have to use a time turner to go back in time and do a class after finishing the first one because of the classes overlapping
Then, there's extracurricular classes:
- Flying
- Quidditch
- Art
- Apparition
- Muggle Art
- Frog Choir and Hogwarts Orchestra
- Ghoul Studies
- Magical Theory
- Music
- Muggle Music
- Xylomancy
- Alchemy
- These classes are ones that usually take place outside of the normal school hours, on weekends or after school on weekdays
- These classes do not have any O.W.L.s and are usually low effort compared to other classes
- The extracurricular are mostly similar to after school clubs in other schools
- Apparition would have an exam at the end of 7th year to determine if a student is allowed to apparate.
- There are most likely more of these although these are the ones i could find canonical relevance for
- In a schedule, these classes would be mentioned as extra blocks & be placed at their respective times:
- These two schedules are more similar but i'd imagine that students 5th/9th period blocks would be at different times depending on the class
- In the beginning chart the ones that are highlighted in a lighter grey are extracurricular classes
- There are a few things I may edit in to these schedules that i haven't right out of laziness, such as Hogsmeade times on those weekends, and different things like that, how Hogwarts holiday weeks works for kids who stay at the school in the holidays, and what houses have which classes together (so i may make an updated version of this schedule at some point)
you're free to ask me questions if you have any, id be glad to answer them, thanks for reading my slow descent into madness because of times and scheduling for a school that doesn't exist!
lets hope im good at explaining things lol
