The Headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry or Headmistress of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry is the chief administrator of the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. They make all major decisions regarding the safety and the day-to-day functioning of the school, and have the power to override any decision made by any other authoritative facilitator at the school, with the possible exception of the board of governors. The Headmaster/Headmistress also controls the protective spells surrounding the school and the ability for certain individuals to enter or exit the grounds at will. Hogwarts also has a Deputy Headmaster or Deputy Headmistress (depending on gender) that assists the headmaster in his duties.
In the event of a headmaster's incapacitation, the deputy headmaster serves as temporary headmaster until the Board of Governors can elect a new, permanent one.
