Chapter 15: The Hogwarts High Inquisitor

The Ministry appoints Umbridge as the Hogwarts High Inquisitor, which gives her the power to review the teaching of other staff.

Umbridge inspects the next Divination class and is so distracting to Professor Trelawney that the class goes very badly. In the Defense class, Hermione has already read the entire textbook so continues to challenge Umbridge. Umbridge doesn’t like it and starts deducting points from Gryffindor House. Harry’s get more detentions for continuing to insist that Voldemort has returned.

Professor McGonagall doesn’t allow Umbridge to interrupt during the inspection of Transfiguration class. In Care of Magical Creatures, Harry gets yet another detention from Umbridge.

Hermione suggests that the class needs to learn practical skills in Defense Against the Dark Arts and wants Harry to teach the group. He doesn’t want to, but Hermione points out that he has the most experience of any of the students.
