Because Hogwarts was gone and Draco’s replacement school largely unfinished, she heard that the Ministry (now free of Draco’s plants) was planning to seize the place and finish it themselves, as Draco himself couldn’t be found anywhere and the wizarding community had really suffered long enough without a school of their own. Home-schooling rates had skyrocketed since Hogwarts’ demise, as not every family wanted their children to go to the farther-off options. There were plans to open this new school as quickly as possible—the hiring process was well underway. All hoped that the following September, the place would be up and running.
