In the Leaky Cauldron interview (a must read!) JKR says the 
Quidditch match where Luna commentates is the last match she'll 
ever write.  This seems to be a strong indication that Hogwarts 
won't really feature next year. Besides, wasn't it made perfectly 
plain at the end of HBP that Harry plans to go to Godric's Hollow, 
do a bit of brushing up on skills, some research etc - in short, 
enter his Dagobah phase? Give up the ghost on Hogwarts, it ain't 
gonna happen! Further, for the final book in the series, Harry 
really needs to move beyond the realms of the schoolyard. In his present state, I don't think he can realistically hope to kill a powerful LV with a band of latent homoerotic Death Eaters on his 
side and one crazy Drusilla! He needs to become a man, steep 
himself in some seriously badass magic.
