Just when you think you know all there is to know about Harry Potter, JK Rowling goes and tells us that there are FOUR more wizarding schools.
The names of the four school were announced via the Pottermore Twitter account to coincide with the ‘Celebration of Harry Potter’ weekend.
First up is Mahoutokoro, an ancient Japanese school and next is the central Africa-based school, Uagadou.

Rowling says the wand is a European invention and many of the Japanese and African wizards cast spells with their fingers.
