Topic #14 William Shakespeare

I am going to do the topic about Williams education and how smart he really was. What was Shakespeare's highest level of education? I think he was probably pretty smart and had a decent education because of the family he came from. I looked it up online and this is what I found. There are no specific records of Williams attendance at school but Williams parents were both Illiterate. Because of his fathers standing in the community and his election to the position of alderman, His children were granted free education. This leads me to believe that William had a pretty good or at least decent education. It is not known how long William attended school. some believe from previous records that William Shakespeare attended King Edward IV Grammar School and received an education in Stratford from the age of seven in in 1571 and left school and formal education when he was 14 in 1578. So thats what I found out about William Shakespeare's Education.
