Lyra:

I guess someone needs to convince Dumbledore that "domestic magic" 
would be a useful subject. (He might realize it's a lot less dodgy 
than divination.) 


[Wilson, Bruce] 
The Wizardling equivalent of Home Economics?  This would be especially useful for Muggleborns (or Mugglereared) like Hermione and Harry.  Children raised in a wizard household could learn those sorts of spells from their parents.
 
Even requiring the professors to have a unit on 'practical household applications' as a part of each class would be useful.
 
However, remember---absense of presence is not the same thing as presence of absence.  Just because we aren't shown something in the Wizardling World doesn't mean that it isn't there.  Like Narnia, Middle Earth, and Wonderland, the WW--or even Velgarth and the Seven Kingdoms---has an existance outside of the author's published works.
