Finwitch:

Harry didn't *go* to those meetings, because he was busy with 
Quidditch or Dumbledore's special lessons or detention. We never hear 
that Neville got dropped off later - we do know that Hermione goes, 
though... and I'd say if Snape did something improper, Hermione would 
be telling Slughorn... but Harry having private lessons with 
Dumbledore at odd times counts for even more. Imagine Dumbledore 
arranging one of his special lessons when Harry's still feeling angry 
due to Snape's bullying behaviour towards Neville... Snape doesn't 
want Dumbledore to find out about that sort of thing so he's NOT 
doing it in front of Harry.
