I'm not sure about Katheryn tho' b/c technically she should be a 6th year... Also, I think the 7th years can take the class since there wasn't a class last year, but I would ask Nick or Cecily to be sure. That didn't really help... :ummmm:

I don't know how a fifth year is going to be 17 a year early, unless they'd failed a year. Finally, not everybody would be turning 17 by June who takes them for their sixth year, but they would all be turning 17 by September (when their 7th year starts - since you must be 11 to start 1st year you must be 17 to start 7th year).

It caused her to fall a grade behind. She will be 17 in August. According to what you said, characters don't take lessons unless their birthdays are before June. So therefore she doesn't take lessons correct?

The bolded portion of my post is in disagreement of what Cyndi said. It is open to all sixth years (who will be 17 before the next school year - not June). I think that the lessons through Hogwarts should solely be open to sixth years (and maybe a seventh year or two who missed it) - so any failing fifth years would have to wait until the lessons were offered to them.

Just making sure.

Just making sure. She can be licensed via the Ministry and not take Hogwarts lessons. But Hogwarts lessons are only offered to the sixth years.
