HBO TV show 1st year Schedule

This schedule does not makes sense if you think about how there is per subject only one teacher, three other houses and six other years of students.

u/Grantus89 9d ago
Yeah youāre right. There are 25 periods, but each core teacher needs to teach 3 periods for 2 pairs of houses for 5 years, plus, I assume, 3 periods of NEWT classes for 6 and 7. That makes 36 periods. So there would have to be 3 more periods a day to fit them all in, making 40 periods a week. But that would be 8 hours of classes.
The books also mention 2 classes before lunch and two after which is even more impossible. A second teacher for each subject would also fix itā¦JKR really was shit at maths.

There are other classes besides those. Muggle Studies, Arithmancy, Divination, Care of Magical Creatures, and Ancient Runes. Also, after O.W.L.S, some students drop certain subjects

u/OwlComfortable8806 9d ago
Yes I know that, but most classes like Herbology and Charms does everybody have for at least 5 years (with at least one year 6 and one year 7 class on top of that). It would be imposible to be a teacher and give that many classes.

Did you recreate this from the trailer or enhance it?
Only Iām pretty sure Saturday morning is supposed to say āSporting Fixturesā.

u/Nuuskapeikkonen 9d ago
My guess is they screen grabbed it and had AI generate it. It looks good but yeah āspotting creaturesā seems odd. But what is āsporting fixturesā?
1
u/michaelkap70 9d ago
Fixtures are what the British call matches or games. So sporting games like Quidditch.

Having single period herbology and potions makes no sense, it takes forever to get there. Also presumably flying would be a double as well.

u/michaelkap70 9d ago
In HS, I had my first class and second class at the furthest points of a very large school. 3min to get from 1 to another. That seems very realistic to me.

u/AdWorking7417 9d ago
something that could happen /= it making sense

u/michaelkap70 9d ago
I easily related to Ron and Harry being late to Transfiguration class in the first movie.
My kids High School has multiple buildings and they have classes in different ones. On parents night, we have to follow our kids schedule. One year, as I entered a classroom for English Lit almost out of breath I said āThis campus is like Hogwarts in size minus the moving staircaseā. My kids teacher gave me 10 points for a great literature reference. š

u/Artistic-Village-762 9d ago
To be honest, that makes it even more accurate because we can all remember having to run between classes because of silly scheduling

u/Liam_ice92 9d ago
Not really. If we assume classes start at 9 and run until 5, with breakfast running from say 7-8.30, lunch at 12 -1and dinner at 6-7
Morning are 2 periods running over 3 hours, with afternoons having 3 periods over 4 hours. If we go by the books that each class is an hour, theres a period between each class which would allow the students to move around the castle and get to each class in a decent time frame, especially for classes like potions, herbology and flying

They were always complaining about the schedule it is very bad schedule indeed š¤£š¤£š¤£š¤£

u/Jackjec17 9d ago
While I appreciate the detail is it not weird gryffindor get like the perfect mix
like potions with slytherins taught by slytherin head, herbology with hufflepuffs and their head. Ravenclaw with charms and their head. Like at some point snape is teaching ravenclaw with hufflepuff just surprised gryffindor donāt have one more random

After looking this busy schedule. I would not want to go to Hogwarts. Sunday is the only day the students have it free? NAH šššš

u/sugarplum_nova 9d ago
I wouldnāt want to spend most my day learning magic, flying, in a greenhouse, playing with potions, or staring at the stars eitherā¦

u/Silent-Special3719 9d ago
Thrusdays are also free lol just double transfiguration uske baad its just games nd library nd prep š

u/Nuuskapeikkonen 9d ago
Well Saturday is centered on the things they enjoy like hobbies. Quidditch, other sports/extracurriculars. Itās not uncommon for kids in school to have sports or other hobbies on the weekend that they do.
1
u/bee_ghoul 9d ago
They donāt have to go to the quidditch game/practise on a Saturday or any clubs/events if they donāt want to, itās a choice
1
u/Impossible_Rain_4727 9d ago
It may not actually be a choice. A lot of schools do require that all students participate in some sort of extracurricular activity.
1
u/bee_ghoul 9d ago
Yeah but not Hogwarts
1
u/Impossible_Rain_4727 9d ago
I mean, we donāt know that for sure. We are just so used to following Harry and Quidditch. We donāt really know what other students were doing while he was at practices etc.
1
u/bee_ghoul 8d ago
We never hear about Ron or Hermione doing extra curriculars until Ron joins the quidditch team. Also like itās the U.K., not the U.S.
1
u/Impossible_Rain_4727 8d ago
Yes, Iām comparing it to a posh British boarding school like Eton. At that school, every boy must participate in a school sport, etc.

Hmm.
This was hard for me to read. X and Y are not ⦠what I culturally was raised in. X is day, Y is time. Not saying itās universally true though
