alternityAs many heard at the CCF awards presentation this afternoon, Madam Dolores Umbridge will be replacing me as the chair of the YPL planning committee beginning immediately. She has spent the past two months observing our summer programmes and making suggestions, and I am confident she will bring a new vision to the school year opportunities as well.
The Ministry and the YPL oversight board both hope that additional focused time and resources will allow for coordinating a more robust programme of education and training for our young people of all ages than can be arranged around any teaching schedule. To aid this, Madam Umbridge will be residing at Hogwarts during the school year, but also available to meet with various constituencies and interested parties in other locations.
While it has been my privilege and honour to be of service, from this point forward please address any questions about either the YPL or CCF programmes to Madam Umbridge’s self or staff. They will be delighted to be of assistance.
Thank you again to everyone who's assisted with the programme:
We truly could not come this far without the help of so many - from those who serve on the YPL planning committee to those who offer instruction and logistical support to those who readily coordinate matters within their own fields and departments so that everything runs smoothly. I’ve deeply appreciated your help and service to the Protectorate and I’m confident you’ll offer the same to my successor.
Students:
There are so many fond memories for me, far beyond the formal aspects of the programme and the chance to get to know you outside of the classroom. I remember chance moments on the camping trips, laughter during play rehearsals, exploring the redevelopment of New London, and seeing students thrive and grow in skill and grace and magic during the challenges of the CCF training. Thank you all for the chance to be a part of your growth in magic, potential, and skill.
On a personal note - while I do admit I’m looking forward for more time for new teaching approaches, astronomy research, and other interests - I very much hope all students will feel welcome to continue stopping by my office hours and talking about all manner of topics. Otherwise, I’ll quite miss hearing about your triumphs and other interests!
Finally:
Thank you all for both the opportunity to be of use to Our Lord’s vision, and for three years of learning, new understanding, and collaboration. My best wishes for the ongoing success of the programme and all the students involved.
