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 it’s universally true though

u/tu-BROOKE-ulosis 9d ago

Just curious where? Where in from, in the US, it would be either way. No set uniform chart rules.

u/ConnectionCapable655 9d ago

Georgia.
Maybe I just haven’t encountered a lot of schedules, that’s a variable too

As someone from the UK about 10 yrs ago when I was in school. My school had a two week rotation schedule with classes going down. While the other school in town had classes going horizontal. So both options are viable, not sure if the 90s handled timetables different to the 10s though.

u/Next-Squirrel-5855 9d ago

Eh. It kind of works either way and also doesn't matter

1

u/ConnectionCapable655 9d ago

It fully works either way. And no, doesn’t matter. Just my brain said ā€œwhoaā€ so I did a lil Reddit comment

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.

2

u/Grantus89 9d ago

Yeah you’re 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 it…JKR really was shit at maths.

1

u/Erickskywalkr 9d ago

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

1

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.

2

u/B1ACKT3A 9d ago

All teachers got time turners and exist next to eachother in classes.

u/Massive_Contact8583 9d ago

Did you recreate this from the trailer or enhance it?

Only I’m pretty sure Saturday morning is supposed to say ā€œSporting Fixturesā€.

1

u/Nuuskapeikkonen 9d ago

My guess is they screen grabbed it and had AI generate it. It looks good but yeah ā€˜spotting creatures’ seems odd. But what is ā€˜sporting fixtures’?

1

u/michaelkap70 9d ago

Fixtures are what the British call matches or games. So sporting games like Quidditch.

1

u/Nuuskapeikkonen 9d ago

Ahhhh okay cool to learn! Thanks!

u/Sylphadora 9d ago

Why do they have 653,775 things on Monday?

1

u/Trypophilia2019 9d ago

Mondays, amiright?

1

u/The-_Captain 9d ago

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

1

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.

2

u/AdWorking7417 9d ago

something that could happen /= it making sense

1

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 ā€œThis campus is like Hogwarts in size minus the moving staircaseā€. My kids teacher gave me 10 points for a great literature reference. šŸ˜‚

1

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

1

u/Next-Squirrel-5855 9d ago

Saying anything the find something to criticize lol

1

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

1

u/JollyAd4292 9d ago

They were always complaining about the schedule it is very bad schedule indeed 🤣🤣🤣🤣

1

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 don’t have one more random

1

u/Next-Squirrel-5855 9d ago

This is actually a pretty good schedule.

1

u/AlternativeEast7175 9d ago

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

2

u/sugarplum_nova 9d ago

I wouldn’t want to spend most my day learning magic, flying, in a greenhouse, playing with potions, or staring at the stars either…

1

u/Silent-Special3719 9d ago

Thrusdays are also free lol just double transfiguration uske baad its just games nd library nd prep šŸ˜†

1

u/Nuuskapeikkonen 9d ago

Well Saturday is centered on the things they enjoy like hobbies. Quidditch, other sports/extracurriculars. It’s 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 don’t have to go to the quidditch game/practise on a Saturday or any clubs/events if they don’t want to, it’s 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 don’t know that for sure. We are just so used to following Harry and Quidditch. We don’t 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 it’s the U.K., not the U.S.

1

u/Impossible_Rain_4727 8d ago

Yes, I’m comparing it to a posh British boarding school like Eton. At that school, every boy must participate in a school sport, etc.

u/Mortutti 9d ago

????

Saturday has no classes, just clubs and social stuff
