Is there any type of school before Hogwarts? Or do kids have to go to
muggle schools before they turn 10/11 and go there?
Also, how do small children already know things like transfiguration (like
when Fred and George turned Ron's bear into a spider)? If they were able
to do that as children, shouldn't McGonagall's class be a piece of cake?
