Harry Potter: Who cares about belated motherly love?

Still with his head down, he fell on the sofa and began to sob.

"You are such a helpless child." "That's right." The women from the former Black family said in disgust, which made him cry even harder, but he was not affected at all. His uncle continued:

"But for now, at least before the start of the school year at Hogwarts this year, we have to arrange for dormitory mothers to stay permanently. By next year, we will have a grasp of the family and study situation of the new students, and fire those teachers who behave improperly. Then there are measures to combat the Defense Against the Dark Arts. Of course, it is no problem to send experts to remove the curse, but I also want to implement the measures proposed by the children. Can Dumbledore be the Defense teacher this semester? Although it is only in name, it would not be bad if the curse comes true? That way he will not be able to return to Hogwarts.

"I hope to hire more teachers or assistants before the start of the next school year. If possible, I would also like to revise the course content, but this can be decided after observing the situation after the number of teachers is increased. In addition, instructors need to be arranged for the Muggle compulsory education examinations. Regarding this, I can try to contact the Muggle university graduates I know."

"Yes. It's a good idea to let Dumbledore nominally be the Defense teacher this semester. Let him never set foot in Hogwarts again. I will prepare for this in advance. It's not realistic to formally hire more teachers, but we can allocate funds through the Council to arrange tutors from various colleges to serve as learning instructors. If this approach is well received and students and parents call for formal employment, the Ministry of Magic will have no choice but to comply. Even without the Ministry of Magic's budget, the proceeds from the auction will be enough to support it."

"By the way, I want to set up a fund to operate the proceeds of the auction. It will be used to support stable operations in the future. If this fund remains transparent, it may attract more donations from alumni. We can separate the accumulation and operation of the fund and increase attention to Hogwarts. At the same time, we can use this money to provide part-time wages for students in financial difficulties, or instead of cash, provide them with paper, pens and next year's textbooks. Work similar to what Filch did in the past can be completely undertaken by students, right? There are many opportunities for this kind of work in the school. Although the scholarship is good, it would be much easier if the burden could be reduced through some labor."

Hmm... Lord Lucius' eyes sparkled. Maybe it's because he always wanted to comment on the management of Hogwarts? But I agree with this. Some families are really in trouble, so these children study hard in the hope of changing their future. Especially those families whose parents are wizards but have never been to Hogwarts and can only do odd jobs, the economic situation is usually not optimistic. Some children will even accept the quills discarded by wealthy children because they can still be used. Although quills are cheap, parchment is too expensive. Although the Ministry of Magic provides some subsidies, life is still stretched.

"This is good. Giving out teaching materials is better than cash, as it will prevent irresponsible parents from taking them away."

Hmm... Professor Prince's father is this kind of person...

"Yes, I agree with this plan. Basically, we will provide textbooks, but some children may need to buy daily necessities and personal items, so it is better to set a clear wage standard and then pay them in kind. We can contact the shops in Hogsmeade or Diagon Alley and ask them to help provide various goods, which will also help students become self-reliant."

"In this case, there is a real need to investigate the families of new students. Priority must be given to helping those students in need."

"A family survey can be conducted when admission is confirmed. I will contact the Council and the Ministry of Magic, and notify the relevant shops. Indeed, it would be more convenient if items other than textbooks could be purchased."

"Well... I have a question. Parchment is really too expensive. Children from poor families find it difficult to even afford it. It was the same in our family before. Although some courses require the use of parchment because it is more resistant to magic, can we consider using ordinary pulp paper instead?"

"Yes, that's true. Parchment is very expensive...it actually accounts for most of the annual expenditure. Textbooks can be bought second-hand in Diagon Alley, or from seniors, but parchment must be bought new. According to tradition, formal homework can continue to use parchment, but other homework can consider using notebooks instead. Or the school can provide students with designated homework paper."

Professor Prince answered. He must have had similar difficulties.

"My brother analyzed that parchment and gallic ink are ideal for long-term storage of magic circles. He also said that gallic ink has high magical conductivity. He asked me why the magic world still uses quill pens? He said that it is because fountain pens are prone to rust, and considering the wallets of students and parents, quill pens are more economical. As for the magical durability of magic circles, ordinary pulp paper is not strong enough. However, there are many types of paper and ink, and further research should be done."

"Indeed. We can analyze this in more detail and re-evaluate the teaching materials. We can investigate what each class specifically needs and incorporate those differences into the curriculum."

The professor began to think. Home... He wants to leave home, right? After all, who wouldn't want to escape from the violence of their parents and the isolation from their surroundings? And now, perhaps there are many Muggle-born children facing the same dilemma. "

“It is not a bad idea to set up a special team for this purpose. Alternatively, we can ask this year’s professors to participate and make a review and adjustment within this year. In this way, the revision should be completed next year or the year after. I will also raise this point with the board of directors and ask them to discuss it.

In the future, I also want to reform the teacher's qualification examination and teaching content. Indeed, as Ron said, those students who have completely returned to the Muggle world do not need to take NEWTs. In order to maintain the quality of teachers and to prevent the headmaster from arbitrarily appointing teachers who are beneficial to him, some rules should be formulated. I will make suggestions to the Council and the Ministry of Magic in this regard.

In addition, it is best to elect one or two representatives and deputy representatives for each grade. This measure is not expensive and can be implemented immediately. It is indeed difficult for supervisors to take care of younger students. Even if some problems can be solved early, they are reluctant to speak out because the children are hesitant. It is also difficult for freshmen to ask supervisors for help directly. Moreover, supervisors are often hesitant because they are busy with their own studies. If the report meeting is held in the dormitory, the representatives of the younger grades can deal with the problem; if the meeting is held between the dormitories, it is also easier to deal with cross-dormitory bullying. If the obligation of each grade representative to report to the supervisor is clear, Potter and Sirius' bullying of Snape may be discovered earlier. Despite how many times they are warned, they still don't stop. If the warning formally decided by the meeting is still ineffective, you can negotiate with the school and impose a suspension. It is definitely not a bad thing to provide students with an occasion to convey their voices to the school.

Those two people were really bad at the time, but they were very cunning, so the senior students didn't find out until late. Snape himself didn't report it, and the students in the same grade pretended not to see it. It's better to elect representatives clearly. In Slytherin, the students with the highest family background usually take on this role, but if representatives are formally elected, it will be smoother to handle problems. It's better not to have deputy representatives from famous families, so that it's easier to discuss problems and the burden of supervising students will be reduced. Thinking about it carefully, the burden of supervising students is indeed too heavy. The responsibility should be shared. In this way, students will be interested in school management from the lower grades, which is not a bad thing. I will definitely recommend introducing this reform as soon as possible this semester.

Although it is not easy to increase the number of teaching staff, it might be a good idea to establish a mechanism across dormitories for students to handle their own problems..."

"What? Sirius actually did such a thing? I feel a little disillusioned..." Professor Prince looked a little embarrassed. Sirius cried even harder. He was abused at home, bullied by two famous students at school, and finally his first love married a person who bullied him... It would be strange if he didn't turn evil!

"I had planned to be a trustee when Draco started, but I will try to get him sooner. So will you, Sirius."

"Also, Snape, in order to ensure that Harry is not used, there must be people who cooperate internally, so you must withdraw your intention to resign, understand?"

Yes, it would be better if Lord Lucius became the director earlier. The directors also have a lot of things to deal with after receiving the report, so it would be better to let Lord Malfoy become the director directly. Those suggestions are all very good.

"No problem. Also, the way to recruit Muggle-borns needs to be improved. Every year, many parents don't know how to reply to owls, and the tasks of persuading parents and helping to purchase teaching materials fall on the teachers, which is quite time-consuming. It would be great if the Ministry of Magic could send staff to help deal with it...

Now that I think about it, there might be something wrong with my attire..."

Yes, if Professor Snape suddenly came to visit, most Muggle parents would be scared. Even if they were not Muggles, they would be scared. Someone who looked more friendly should be sent to explain. Professor Snape was not a bad person, but he was a little difficult to approach.

But he is now well groomed. Edgar said that Professor Prince will be a big change, and the new semester is exciting. I really saw it in advance. However, he has inherited a famous family and his appearance has improved. He may encounter a lot of troubles in the future... But this person doesn't seem to be good at accepting other people's kindness, so it should be okay, right? After all, his inner defense is surprisingly thick, and he won't let anyone in easily. He is very suspicious, and if the reactions around him change, he may close himself off even more.

If you think about it this way, Harry's future won't be easy. He has a rebellious Sirius and a complicated Professor Prince as his guardians... but they are both loving people, so it shouldn't be a big problem, right? Just think so.

"Yes, information management is also a problem. The Ministry of Magic had better formulate relevant regulations and send someone to explain it clearly. I will make arrangements in this regard."

Lord Lucius has so many things to do, and he is very good at greeting and smoothing relationships. How many times has he said "greeting" and "suggestion" today? That's why he was able to get away easily even after Voldemort disappeared. He is really smart... He is worthy of being a real Slytherin. This ability is really important to protect your family. I have to study hard.

"In any case, this is the result of Hogwarts avoiding the Ministry of Magic's intervention for a long time.

Now is a good time for change, right, Sirius."

Sirius, with tears streaming down his face, softly replied, "Yes." Even though his eyes were blurred with tears, his face was still so beautiful that it made people's heart flutter. Having a good face is really an advantage, no wonder Ron also complained endlessly.

Lady Lucrezia scolded him harshly, and Lady Narcissa said coldly, "You deserve it."

That’s right, reflect on the past and work hard!
