Hogwerts Classes - No math or history?

[uncmark]

No: HPFGUIDX 34583

My niece wants to go to Hogwart's and said "Npw I don't have to take 
math class anymore." I laughed and then reread class descriptions and 
found notoriously absent the muggle basics of math, english, history, 
etc.

I wondered if 'Muggle Studies' covered this, but after reading the 
Muggle studies essay in the Harry potter lexicon find them absent 
(Muggle Studies appear to be elective anyway.)

I assume that writing is included in the general classes (with 3-
parchment essays regularly being assigned)but are we to assume that 
magicians couldn't do simple math or fail simple social studies?

Are these classes not taught in English secondary schools? I wouldn't 
think highly of all the young wizards trying to make a living. I 
considered Hogwarts, Beauxbatons, and Durmstrang the best of the 
best, but you have to wonder.
