Hagrid is improving steadily. I quote Angelina "It's not like 
Trelawney, he's been teaching much better than usual this year!"
We don't hear of any students dropping CoMC, either, even 
Draco seems willing to stick with it. 

Were any students injured in Hagrid's classes this year? I don't 
think so.  If not, they're probably safer than most Hogwarts 
classes. I'm amazed anyone would think Snape's classes aren't 
dangerous.  Students are always being sent to the hospital wing 
or having to line up for antidotes. There are injuries aplenty in 
other classes as well. Neville was injured during flying lessons, 
Ron was injured during charms in GoF, everyone gets sunburnt 
in Herbology in PoA.
