Harry and Hermione have Muggle school transcripts which are 
probably based on their actual grades translated somehow.

Half-bloods who attended a Muggle primary school. They simple 
in the records transfer to an obscure public school in Scotland 
and that takes care of that. Makes life easier for the parents as 
well.



That's a good idea, but in order to be registered the school 
would need an actual address - and I'm having trouble figuring 
out what is accessible to muggles, and what exists through 
hidden doorways. For example, even though the Hogwarts 
Express leaves a magical hidden platform, Harry and Ron could 
chase it in their car. They didn't go through any magic gateway... 
did they?
