There’s a lot of shite that doesn’t make sense in HP’s world. Like how in the world could Potions be more important than math and English?
I've often wondered this, and I think these are either classes that don't mentioned or they learn these skills in other manners. Math is probably a big component in doing potions.
But again, witches and wizards are going to lead different lives from muggles. Learning trig probably isn't all that important. But they are writing papers all the time so English is surely taught in some fashion.

Remember, this is secondary school, not college. They probably take 7 classes a year, not 4 or so (college fulltime). So the basic education (math, science, grammar) + magic specialties, instead of the electives we take. History is probably in the mix too. PE is out, art is out, things like that.
We all "know" Hermione aced her regular academics, and Ron got by with C's; no need to spend time there.
