Forum:Class GLEs pt.2

  Class GLEs Part One A recent vote has just been passed in favor of a amendment to the current system of schooling. We are introducing these new things called G.L.E.s (General Learning Expectations). However, so that we are able to keep things fair, we need the "Wizengamot" (those twelve people know who they are, hopefully). So, here goes. The G.L.E.s will be split by class and voted on separately.

Comments:
Alright, so I know you guys are going to notice that Muggle Studies only goes up to the OWL year, but I was reading about the class on HPW and it says that it didnt go to NEWTs or it was unknown whether it did or not. I wasn't sure whether or not we did it here. So, when I get confirmation, I will be adding it to the next round of GLE votes.
