Students in the exam years
I’ve heard the usual worries about the upcoming exams, and I had a thought to make it easier. I’ve notes for each of my 5th years and 7th years - you’ll get them when we meet tonight or tomorrow.
On those notes, I’ve listed the topics I feel you have securely learned and made notes about any places where some time and attention might lead to useful improvement in your exam marks. But! Before you worry, in all but a very few cases (who already know who they are), it is material that can wait until after the holidays. Most of you are doing solidly well - cheers on all the time and attention you’ve put in over the past years.
Which is to say, much as I think everyone should have their heads in the stars nearly all the time, I encourage you to spend your time away from school on other topics. (I’d say relaxation, but I suspect most of you won’t listen.) We will do further revision together after the holidays, of course, just to make sure you can go into the exams with full confidence.
If you have any questions at all about my field, I will be away from Hogwarts over the holidays, but expect to be responding by journal in a timely but not necessarily immediate fashion - I have some larger projects to attend to. (Parents, of course, I remain glad to address any of your concerns as well.)

Re: I Solemnly Swear That I Am Up To No Good: Private message to Pansy
They can't make that much of a fuss. It's not a social call. It's business. And if it's making it so we can find out what's keeping Her Royal Bitch on her throne, it's very important business.
Do you think we can convince Harry to ask Raz more closely about the blackmail too? I think he's a bit hesitant about it, otherwise he'd have done already, wouldn't he?
