What a star - thanks. I tell myself that we'll be rejecting all those 
posts as 'nothing new' when we eventually get there.

The existing one is no good to you then (?):
3.10.7	••••Hogwarts Express & Platform 9 3/4  
It is under travel at the moment. I think if the post was about the 
way they should be punished for the things they get up to on the 
train, I'd see that as an extension of the school discipline system.

I agree that the only school discipline code we have at the moment is:
3.16.4.8••••••House championship, points system & house cup 

We could add:

3.16.4.9 ...School discipline system, general

Wd that be ok?
