I was therefore a bit surprised to find that (presumably on  the insistence 
of Dan's parents), principal photography for GoF wasn't  started last summer 
instead of waiting until the start of the school term.  The same goes for 
OotP, starting in the new year, rather than this  summer.

I *think* Dan is meant to be taking his GCSEs next year 


He took some "huge exams" in January of this year, according to the  
newsletter he sent fans (which was posted on DanRadcliffe.com and  DanRadcliffe.co.uk) 
-- wouldn't those have been the GCSEs?
 
Why would Dan's parents insist on photography starting at a certain  time if 
he's not doing other projects -- unless they're trying to make sure he  gets a 
certain amount of vacation time??  And how do you know this?  I  haven't seen 
any articles stating that, but I'm in the US and not privy to all  the 
articles you are in the UK, unless someone posts them online.

Thanks for the explanations of all the various things about age  limitations 
in the UK.  So if kids are allowed in pubs at age 14, why are  Third Years 
(13) allowed in the Three Broomsticks?  I'm thoroughly  confused.  Thanks for 
info!
