It was Georges Mikes (pronounced Mee-kesh) Hungarian by birth. 

I think Hogwarts is a one off.

Can you think of any other boarding school in the UK that admits both 
sexes from age eleven? I can't. I can remember the fuss a few years back
when Eton admitted girls to the sixth form, but no other co-educational
boarding schools.

Like you, I went to a Grammar School. A hot bed (!) of sexual fantasies.
We did have some sex education (one 45 minute lecture) but that was in 
the 50s. The only things we learned was the correct terminology for the
slang we had been using for the previous couple of years.

If Hogwarts were filled with examples of the average Brit teenager, you'd
need cattle-prods to keep 'em apart.

Is there something JKR is not telling us? Bromide in the Pumpkin juice?
