  Cuthbert Binns
  Magiens historie
  Læreren i magiens historie i hele serien. Cuthbert Binns er den eneste lærer på Hogwarts, som er et spøgelse. Det siges, at han en dag tog en lur i en stol i lærerværelset/personalerummet og døde i søvne; senere rejste han sig blot op for at gå ud og undervise sin næste time og "efterlod sin krop". Det siges, at hans undervisning er notorisk kedelig, og det nævnes, at det mest spændende, der nogensinde sker i hans klasse, er, at han "går ind gennem tavlen". Som spøgelse synes han ikke at være klar over sin forandring fra levende til død. I den anden bog er det ham, der beskriver legenden om Hemmelighedernes Kammer, når eleverne spørger ham, men i filmversionen er det McGonagall, da Binns ikke optræder i nogen af filmene. Han tager konstant fejl af elevernes navne og er ofte så fraværende, at han er overrasket over, at klassen er fyldt med elever.
  Charity Burbage
  Muggle Studies
  Læreren i Muggelstudier før Harrys syvende år; hun optræder ikke før Harry Potter og Dødsregalierne (da Harry ikke har behov for at tage klassen). Fordi hendes undervisning om mugglere gav et generelt positivt indtryk af dem, idet hun gik så langt som til at skrive en lederartikel, der roste mugglere i Daily Prophet, kommer hun i konflikt med Dødsædere, hvis filosofi hævder renblods overlegenhed. Hun bliver Lord Voldemorts fange i den syvende bog; han torturerer og dræber hende, før han fodrer Nagini med hende. Figuren (spillet af Carolyn Pickles) optræder kortvarigt i filmen Harry Potter og dødsregalierne - del 1.
  Alecto og Amycus Carrow
  Muggelstudier / Viceinspektør og inspektør / Mørkekunst
  Carrows er søskende Dødsgardister, der er udstationeret som viceinspektør og viceinspektør på Hogwarts for at holde kontrol over skolen, opretholde et rædselsregime og tage sig af straffen under Snapes regime som inspektør i Harry Potter og Dødsregalierne. Alecto Carrow underviste i Muggelstudier, som nu er et obligatorisk fag; men i stedet for at opmuntre til forståelse for Mugglere, underviste hun i ideologier om, at Mugglere ikke var bedre end dyr. Amycus Carrow underviste i Forsvar mod de mørke kunster; det bemærkes dog, at der ikke var noget forsvar involveret, fordi de havde ændret navnet til Mørkekunst, så Amycus underviste ofte eleverne i de utilgivelige forbandelser og opfordrede dem åbent til at praktisere disse på deres klassekammerater, hvilket indbragte dem eftersidning.
  Albus Dumbledore
  Transfiguration / vicerektor / rektor
  Rektor på Hogwarts siden et par årtier før Harrys fødsel og indtil Harrys sjette år på Hogwarts, hvor Dumbledore bliver dræbt af Snape på hans anmodning. Dumbledore har tidligere fungeret som transfigurationslærer under Tom Riddles (Lord Voldemort) tid på Hogwarts og som leder af Gryffindor-huset og viceinspektør. Dumbledore var også grundlæggeren af Føniksordenen. Han blev tildelt mange titler, hvoraf de fleste blev fjernet af trolddomsminister CorneileusFudge, efter at han beskyldte Dumbledore for at konspirere om at overtage ministeriet.
  Argus Filch
  Vicevært
  Squib-vagtmesteren på Hogwarts i hele serien. Ejer en kat ved navn Mrs. Norris. Han hader alle elever, og han er bitter over ikke at besidde magiske evner.
  Firenze
  Spådomskunst
  En kentaur, der tidligere boede sammen med sin flok i den forbudte skov. I Føniksordenen, efter at Sybill Trelawney er blevet fyret af Dolores Umbridge, bliver han hyret af Dumbledore til at undervise i spådomskunst i hendes sted. De andre kentaurer fandt dette uhæderligt og fyrede ham fra flokken. Ved Half-Blood Prince blev Trelawney genindsat som divinationslærer, men på grund af Firenzes situation med sin flok fik Dumbledore dem til at undervise i divination samtidig, indtil Firenze vender tilbage til skoven efter slaget om Hogwarts.

  En vikarierende lærer i Care of Magical Creatures. Hun optræder første gang i Harry Potter og Ildbægeret, hvor hun tager timer, når Hagrid ikke kan undervise, og hun vikarierer igen i Harry Potter og Fønixordenen, når Hagrid er på mission for Fønixordenen. En række elever på Harrys årgang foretrækker Grubbly-Plank, da hun i modsætning til Hagrid gerne underviser dem i væsner, der ikke har giftige hugtænder eller dødbringende kløer. På trods af Harrys indledende mistillid til hendes evner i forhold til Hagrid er hun en kompetent lærer - hun kan genkende årsagen til Hedwigs skader og helbrede hende uden problemer.
  Rubeus Hagrid
  Pasning af magiske væsner / Plantevogter
  Halvgigantens vildtvogter, nøgle- og grundvogter og, fra Harrys tredje år på Hogwarts, professor i pleje af magiske skabninger. Han har for vane at introducere farlige væsner, som han anser for harmløse, for eleverne.

  Silvanus Kettleburn
  Pleje af magiske væsner
  Læreren i "Care of Magical Creatures" siden Armando Dippet (Dumbledores forgænger) var rektor. Han trækker sig til sidst tilbage for at "tilbringe tid med sine resterende lemmer", og hans plads bliver til sidst overtaget af Hagrid i Prisoner of Azkaban.

  Læreren i forsvar mod de mørke kunster i Harry Potter og hemmelighedernes kammer (Harrys andet år på Hogwarts). Han er forgudet af de kvindelige elever for sin charme og popularitet i troldmandsverdenen, men er i virkeligheden en kujon og en svindler, der tog historier fra andre troldmænd og derefter slettede deres hukommelse.

I slutningen af bogen afsløres Moody som en bedrager, Barty Crouch Jr., der havde fanget den rigtige Moody en dag før skolestart som led i en plan om at udlevere Harry til Lord Voldemort for at hjælpe ham med at genopstå. Moody dukker op igen i serien som et aktivt medlem af Føniksordenen, men han underviser faktisk aldrig.
  Irma Pince
  Bibliotekar
  Bibliotekar på Hogwarts i hele serien. Hun sammenlignes med en "underernæret grib", og hun er meget besidderisk og beskyttende over for biblioteksbøgerne og skriger mange gange efter Ron og Harry. Dumbledore fortæller, at selv om hun indvilligede i at lade Hogwarts eksemplar af Quidditch through the Ages blive brugt til en særlig faksimile kopi, gik det så meget imod hendes natur at overdrage bogen, at hun blev ramt af en usædvanlig form for lammelse, og han måtte tage hendes fingre ud af bogen manuelt.
  Poppy Pomfrey
  Matron
  Matron og sygeplejerske med ansvar for hospitalsfløjen i hele serien, idet hun har siddet på posten i årtier. Det blev nævnt en gang, at hun arbejdede på St. Mungo's, før hun blev overflyttet til Hogwarts. Hun har ry for at være streng, men da hun blev konfronteret med Dolores Umbridges og senere Dødsgardisternes misbrug af eleverne, indrømmer hun, at hun aldrig overvejede at sige op, da hun nægtede at forlade eleverne, da de havde mest brug for hende.

  Subject/Position
  
  Background
  
  
  Cuthbert Binns
  
  History of Magic
  
  The History of Magic teacher during the entire series. Cuthbert Binns has the distinction of being the only teacher at Hogwarts who is a ghost. It is said that one day he took a nap in a chair in the teachers' lounge/staff room and died in his sleep; later, he simply got up to go to teach his next class and "left his body behind". His lessons are said to be notoriously boring and it is mentioned that the most exciting thing that ever happens in his class is his "entering through the blackboard". As a ghost he seems unaware of his change from living to dead. In the second book it is he who describes the legend of the Chamber of Secrets when asked by the students, but in the film version it is McGonagall, as Binns does not appear in any of the films. He constantly gets the students' names wrong and is often so absent-minded he is amazed to find the class filled with students.
  
  
  Charity Burbage
  
  Muggle Studies
  
  The Muggle Studies teacher before Harry's seventh year; she does not appear until Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (as Harry has no need to take the class). Because her teachings about Muggles gave an overall favourable impression of them, going so far as to write an editorial praising Muggles in the Daily Prophet, she runs afoul of the Death Eaters, whose philosophy asserts the supremacy of pure-bloods. She becomes a prisoner of Lord Voldemort in the seventh book; he tortures and kills her before feeding her to Nagini. The character (played by Carolyn Pickles) appears briefly in the film Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 1.
  
  
  Alecto and Amycus Carrow
  
  Muggle Studies / Deputy Headmaster and Headmistress / Dark Arts
  
  The Carrows are sibling Death Eaters, posted as Deputy Headmaster and Deputy Headmistress to Hogwarts to keep control over the school, maintain a reign of fear and to take charge of punishment under Snape's regime as Headmaster in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. Alecto Carrow taught Muggle Studies, now a required course; however, instead of encouraging understanding of Muggles, she taught ideologies that Muggles were no better than animals. Amycus Carrow taught Defence Against the Dark Arts; however it is noted that there was no defence involved because they had changed the name to Dark Arts, so Amycus frequently taught students the Unforgivable Curses and openly encouraged them to practice these on their classmates who earned themselves detention.

  The Headmaster of Hogwarts since a few decades before Harry's birth until Harry's sixth year at Hogwarts when Dumbledore is killed by Snape on his request.

A number of students in Harry's year prefer Grubbly-Plank, as unlike Hagrid, she is quite happy to teach them about creatures that don't have poisonous fangs, or deadly talons. Despite Harry's initial distrust of her abilities compared to Hagrid, she is a competent teacher – recognising the cause of Hedwig's injuries and healing her with little difficulty.
  
  
  Rubeus Hagrid

  The Matron and nurse in charge of the hospital wing during the entire series, being on the position for decades.
