Neri:
The reason for the lack of universities might be simply 
quantitative: there's just enough wizards in Britain for one big 
school. Given that not everybody continues to the university and 
that the number of fields and courses in the university needs to be 
larger (diversity of knowledge increases with its level) there would 
be only one or two students per class. More logical to use the 
master/assistant system.
