    Education in the Middle Ages was primerally performed in the church. This was commanded by the ruler Charlamagne. He declared that every church and monastary would create a school that allowed all boys willing to work on getting an actual education for free. The classes included rhetoric, grammer, logic, Latin, astronomy, philosophy and math. However, students would sometimes learn more by simply touring the area they live in and talking to hunters, trappers, and poachers.

    During the 1300's both boys and girls attended school in Florence. Women from the upper classes had obligations that required literacy. The subject of education for women was a hotly debated issue throughout the middle ages. Medieval society, and particularly the powerful domains of church and state, clearly had no place for well educated women.

    Monks taught school for boys where they learned to read and write Latin. It was very important to learn for church services. Bishops taught in cathedrals. Some students in school could choose to study law, medicine, philosophy or theology. Those who taught these were called doctors. The church not only encouraged learning, they encouraged artists and builders. Most women in the Middle Ages were homeschooled and were allowed to learn in an actual school.
