Not sure if this is what you'd meant by lack of education, but when do Hogwarts students learn English and Math and History and other things that they do seem to know, but never had in school? Or do they figure they learned enough of that stuff in primary school before they got to Hogwarts... but except for Harry and other Muggle-raised, when/where do they go to primary school.
I admit I never thought about the language issue in time travel of even a few centuries. It is touched upon in Barbara Hambley's (sp?) "Those Who Hunt the Night" vampire novel.
