Flying is a Seminar type class, given to first year students twice per year. It teaches basic broom-handling skills, and a passing grade is required to use a broom on the school grounds. It is strictly pass/fail, and those who fail the first time can retake it in a remedial form in the spring.

It's possible to fail flying for several years in a row, and opt to take the remedial courses. Students who fail the course are not required to pass, but cannot use the brooms or join a house team until they do.


Classroom

Flying takes place outdoors in the fall and against in the spring, usually in one of the larger courtyards. Students are lied up with a school broom at their side and asked to perform basic broom skills.

Class Content

Madam Hooch has taught Flying at Hogwarts for several decades, possibly as far back as the 1950s.
