Classroom Description

The set up of this room is slightly unusual in that there are only four long desks, two lined along each side wall with the back desk on each side raised higher than the front one, creating a stair-like formation and leaving a long corridor open along the middle of the room. The large cathedral-like windows that form most of the back wall provide plenty of illumination to work by the massive wooden desks. Another unusual aspect of the room is the higher than normal vaulted ceilings, soaring up almost 12 feet. The space in front of the windows has been left open, with the exception of the teacher's desk, placed off at an angle in one corner. Next to the Desk in front of the windows close to the wall is a trap door that when opened leads down a spiral stairwell into the Charmitorium a level below the Classroom.

Synopsis

Considered by many to be the most fundamental field of magic, Charms teaches spells that enchant objects, people, or creatures to behave in a way that isn't normal. It is also something of a catch-all category for spells that don't qualify as Transfiguration spells. Note that charms are generally positive in nature, as opposed to curses, which have negative effects — though it could be said that both forms of magic are two sides of the same coin.

Each particular subject roughly takes up two weeks time. With practice of the spells learned in the Charmitorium in the last two weeks of the month. Every class is two hours long.

In order to take Charms at the N.E.W.T. level a student must have an 'A' Grade in their Charms O.W.L.
