I'm sorry, can we talk about how useless the fairies in Royal Prep are??
In 'Once Upon a Princess', we don't see them actually correcting, critiquing, or even encouraging Sofia (which was what was needed more than anything, since she was new to royal life, and you'd think the fairies would have understood that) when she struggled to learn to properly pour tea and curtsy. They just shook their heads, implying she was doing it wrong. Great teaching. In fact, because Sofia was new to being a princess, you'd think Flora, Fauna, and Merryweather would have spent extra time with Sofia to help her learn.
It took James to teach her how to do these things, and she got the hang of it right away when he showed her.
And we know these fairies don't exactly spend much time on lessons either, or give the kids much of a chance to practice before ending the lesson and moving on (which was probably also part of the problem in OUaP). Because in both 'Cedric's Apprentice' (s1) and 'Substitute Cedric' (s2), when they were *cough* 'teaching' the class sorcery, they showed them how to do the spell ONCE (without even explaining how to properly pronounce the words or flick their wands), let the kids try it themselves for LESS THAN A MINUTE (without giving critique or correcting them in what they were doing wrong), then immediately ended the lesson. WTF??? (Compare this to Cedric, who actually put effort into teaching in both those episodes, even when he didn't even want to at first... and ofc, he's come so far since then!!)
And don't even get me started on how they handled Prank Day every year (or how they didn't).
