From: "Magda Grantwich" 

A thought struck me when I read this.  Where do little wizards and
witches go to school before they reach the age of 11 and can go to
Hogwarts? 

These are both quotes from Scholastic interviews with JKR:

How do students at Hogwarts get educated in Muggle subjects? Do they even need to know other things besides magic? 

They can choose to study Muggle subjects. In the third book, Hermione takes the class Muggles Studies, and that's where they learn about Muggles in school. 

Do wizards and witches have to go Muggle school before they go to Hogwarts? 

No, they don't have to.
