Wizarding Schools

巫師學(xué)校

The number of countries that have their own magical school is minuscule compared to those that do not. This is because the wizarding populations of most countries choose the option of home schooling. Occasionally, too, the magical community in a given country is tiny or far-flung and correspondence courses have been found a more cost-effective means of educating the young.

有巫師學(xué)校的國(guó)家遠(yuǎn)少于沒(méi)有巫師學(xué)校的國(guó)家。這是因?yàn)樵诖蠖鄶?shù)國(guó)家中巫師們更習(xí)慣家族式教育。有些時(shí)候，在一個(gè)特定的國(guó)家，巫師聚集地是極小或者極度偏遠(yuǎn)的，對(duì)于年輕巫師來(lái)說(shuō)，更有效的受教育方式是函授課程。

There are eleven long-established and prestigious wizarding schools worldwide, all of which are registered with the International Confederation of Wizards. Smaller and less well-regulated institutions have come and gone, are difficult to keep track of, and are rarely registered with the appropriate Ministry (in which case, I cannot vouch for the standard of education they might offer). Anyone wishing to know whether there is an approved magical school in their region should address an owl enquiry to the International Confederation of Wizards, Educational Office.

在世界各地共有十一個(gè)歷史悠久的魔法學(xué)校，這些學(xué)校均在國(guó)際巫師聯(lián)合會(huì)注冊(cè)登記。一些小型的、沒(méi)有監(jiān)管的教學(xué)機(jī)構(gòu)大多很快消亡，它們難以被追蹤，很少在相關(guān)部門(mén)登記（因?yàn)檫@個(gè)原因，它們提供的教育水平也得不到擔(dān)保）。任何想了解當(dāng)?shù)厥欠裼姓?guī)魔法學(xué)校的人，都應(yīng)該用貓頭鷹給國(guó)際巫師聯(lián)合會(huì)送信詢問(wèn)相關(guān)問(wèn)題。

The precise location of each of the following schools is a closely guarded secret. The schools fear not only Muggle persecution, for it is a sad fact that at various times in their long histories, all of these institutions have been buffeted by the effects of wizard wars, and of hostile attention from both the foreign and domestic magical communities (it is not only in Britain that the education of magical youth has been subject to Ministry interference or pressure). As a general rule, magical schools tend to be situated in landlocked, mountainous areas (although there are notable exceptions, as will be seen), as such regions are difficult for Muggles to access, and easier to defend from Dark wizards.

每一所魔法學(xué)校的具體位置都是嚴(yán)格保密的。學(xué)校不僅需要擔(dān)心來(lái)自麻瓜的迫害，并且令人悲傷的是在悠久的歷史中，這些學(xué)校都會(huì)受到巫師戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)的波及，滿懷敵意的目光從全球巫師聚落而來(lái)（不僅僅是英國(guó)，全球各地的青年巫師教育都會(huì)有外界干擾和壓力）。一般來(lái)說(shuō)，魔法學(xué)校大多位于深處內(nèi)陸的山區(qū)中（當(dāng)然，如我們所見(jiàn)也有例外），因?yàn)檫@些地方麻瓜往往難以到達(dá)，同時(shí)也更容易抵御黑巫師。
