I do not believe that Hagrid ever says Hogwarts is the only school.  In 
fact, in PS, he says that it is the "finest school of witchcraft and 
wizardry in the world" (Bloomsbury, p. 47).  This definitely implies the 
existence of other schools, but it could just as well be referring to 
foreign schools as to British ones, or both.  It is simply not clear.
