Had been Hogwarts an education well spent for Mister Potter?

Was the Hogwarts quality of education worth it for Harry Potter? Aspiring journalistic minds wish to know. Arbesman.net claims the Hogwarts curriculum isn’t really practical for the Muggle world, and thus the high quality of schooling is low. But the Washington Post sided with the positive with regards to hallowed Hogwarts’ educational acumen. Pottermania is obviously alive and well as "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows" makes its theatrical introduction.

Hogwarts – Quality education or impractical muddle?

According to the Huffington Post, "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows" has come out. That means that it is a good time to talk all about the journey Harry has gone through. Since Harry is leaving Hogwarts, it might be a good time to give Hogwarts a report card on how it did. It's pupils are doing this. Samuel Arbesman gives the hallowed halls a failing grade:

As near as I can tell, if you grow up in the magical world (as opposed to be Muggle-born, for example), you do not go to school at all until the age of eleven. In fact, it’s entirely unclear to me how the children of the wizarding world learn to read and write. There is a reason Hermione seems much more intelligent than Ron Weasley. It's because Ron is very likely completely uneducated.

Harry Potter is just one of numerous that are likely to have to go to the Muggle world for any more schooling. They have to go to college and graduate schools there. According to Arbesman, magic won't help Harry very much. The "real" world needs more than this. No Quiddich, no flying brooms, no wands and no spells can help as much as critical thinking and a knowledge of mundane Muggle things.

Hogwarts not so bad according to the Washington Post

Valerie Strauss of the Washington Post argues that Muggle (American) public schools have much to learn from the Hogwarts model:

The array of Hogwarts courses — required and elective — has a creative breadth not seen in many a school here in the No Child Left Behind era, in which curriculum has been so drastically narrowed that a lot of kids don’t get much history, science or physical education.

There are many classes offered at Hogwarts. Some include things like Charms, Defense Against the Dar Arts, Transfiguration, Ghoul Studies and Herbology. It is very essential to have critical thinking. The only way to get from the dark Lord Voldemort is to do this.
