He was abducted by Hagrid when he turned 11 so that would place him maybe around the fifth or sixth grade.

I don’t know if canonically there are math classes at Hogwarts.


The thought came to while I was watching the anime Mashle. If you are into Harry Potter and One-Punch Man I’d recommend giving it a watch.


Someone mentioned this community below; I wanted to highlight it.

    I’m sure Hogwarts also covered general education stuff but that would be boring to us so they focused on the magic stuff. That’s my theory though.

            Yeah, none of them seem to be aware of guns. You now how often dark wizards do spells in the books to protect themselves against projectiles? Never. They never do a spell like that, so far as I know.

              As far as I know, the Protego spell protects against physical forces. The reason no one uses projectiles (they certainly could catapult stuff around with spells as well) is probably because it’s common knowledge that it does nothing.

      Boring? This is the same universe where wizards canonically defecated in the streets and used fecal vanishing spells.

      However, when Hogwarts’ plumbing became more elaborate in the eighteenth century (this was a rare instance of wizards copying Muggles, because hitherto they simply relieved themselves wherever they stood, and vanished the evidence), the entrance to the Chamber was threatened, being located on the site of a proposed bathroom.
