Godric waited for the two to exchange the appropriate parting formalities before stepping back in to take back over the tour. "I am quite glad that she arrived. I much prefer the teachers to have their say about their classes, if possible. Unfortunately, while we keep up with the staff as much as possible, we cannot know everything about their process. Since all of our faculty has been vouched for by at least two individuals in the wizarding community about their intentions, intelligence, and upstanding position, we tend to give them a little freedom in how they teach.
"We have spoken to them in generality about our expectations, of course. However, some of the teachers are very intelligent and, thus, a little eccentric in their approaches to education. But rest assured, if there are complaints from students about anything untoward occurring during class that seem valid and not just student griping about work, we would investigate the allegations immediately.
"One of our founding values is the relatively safe and responsible education of young wizards and witches. And Lady Moore shares that goal quite strongly. She's spent much of her last five years of life trying to teach reading and writing to those in need of the skill, sometimes with ill reception by nobles who did not care for what they refer to as meddling where she didn't belong. But she persisted nevertheless. It's the passion, not our relation, that made us hire her on. We have stories like that about most of our teachers. All of them are people with the knowledge and drive to instruct - often to their own detriment yet they persist nevertheless."
