In my understanding of colloquial English in England, revision automatically implies preparation for a test or exam; study might be anything from review of existing work through to primary research. In the sort of school conditions Rowling describes, you might get study periods every evening and (for higher level subjects) independent study periods also during the daytime timetable, but revision would only get timetabled in the immediate proximity of exams.
