Michael started his education at Hogwarts in the mid-1990s. Upon arriving at Hogwarts, Michael was Sorted into Gryffindor house.

Shortly after this, he was joined by Harry Potter in the courtyard when Umbridge turned up, because it was then that the Weasley twins decided to put their plan of escape into action, a plan that Michael witnessed and supported.

One year later, Headmaster Albus Dumbledore was murdered by Death Eaters who had infiltrated the school.
