PREVIOUSLY IN A NEW BEGINNING

The Potter Twins propose to remove Divination off of the electives list and revise the Muggle Studies portions. They also suggest that Professor Charity Burbage go to the Muggle World and get herself updated.

"Alright. We can do that. Instead of Divination, which subject should be taken up? There has to be something that will fill the gap?" asked Daniel Greengrass. "I would suggest instead of an elective subject, we should add duelling as a core subject for all students from third year till they graduate. There will be no option for OWLs and it will be writing NEWTs for the subject straight away. It will also help them to protect themselves in times of dire need." Suggested Sirius.

"Very well said, Lord Black. Especially after what we got to know in the Wizengamot session, I think the students need to be prepared to protect themselves IN CASE You-Know-Who comes back alive." Said Lord Abbott. The others agreed to this and added it to the subject list. "Any other proposals?" asked Dumbledore.

"I suggest we find a new teacher for History of Magic. Professor Binns is no better than putting even one of the worst insomniacs to sleep. We should relieve him and find someone else." Said Remus once he was given a chance. "I got a chance to see one his third-year lessons this past year. It's still the same as when my batchmates and I were in school." He stated.

Most of them laughed at this as they had been a victim of Binns' lessons themselves. Everyone voted for this and agreed to find a new teacher. Next was for potions. Alaya had proposed to find a new teacher for the first two years of students to teach the basics while Professor Snape taught students of third year and above. Everyone agreed to this one too and added it to the list. The jinx placed on the DADA teacher position had been removed by the Charms professor Filius Flitwick. It was then decided that Mad Eye Moody would become the DADA teacher till a permanent teacher was found.

Harry then suggested "We have to do something about the old Cleansweep brooms that are being used for flying classes. We should get new ones for the school as the old ones are too dangerous to use." Lord Zabini, Lord Abbott and Lord Greengrass immediately backed the proposal. But there rose another question about the funds. Alaya gave the solution for this. "The House of Boldon and House of Romanov would like to fund for the brooms." Announced Alaya. "So does the House of Potter and the House of Peverell." Said Harry.
