The city of Alexandria in Egypt, founded in 330 BCE, became the successor of Athens as the intellectual cradle of Ancient Greece.

In China, Confucius (551-479 BCE), of the State of Lu, was the country's most influential ancient philosopher, whose educational outlook continues to be the communities of China and neighbors like Korea, Japan, and Vietnam.

After the Fall of Rome, the Catholic Church became the sole survivor of scholarship in Western Europe. The church established cathedral schools in the Early Middle Ages as centers of advanced education. Some of these establishments end in evolved in medieval universities and forebears of many of Europe's modern universities. During the High Middle Ages, Chartres Cathedral operated the famous and influential Chartres Cathedral School. The medieval universities of Western christendom were well-integrated across all Western Europe, encouraged freedom of inquiry, and produced a great variety of fine scholars and natural philosophers, including Thomas Aquinas of Naples, Robert Grosseteste of the University of Oxford, An early expositor of a systematic method of scientific experimentation, and Saint Albert the Great, a pioneer of biological field research. Founded in 1088, the University of Bologne is the first, and the oldest continuing operating university.
Elsewhere during the Middle Ages, Islamic science and mathematics flourished under the Islamic caliphate which was established throughout the Middle East, extending from the Iberian Peninsula in the west to the Indus in the East and to the Almoravid Dynasty and the Mali Empire in the south.
The Renaissance in Europe was a new age of scientific and intellectual inquiry and appreciation of ancient Greek and Roman civilizations. Around 1450, Johannes Gutenberg developed a printing press, which allowed works of literature to spread quickly. The European Age of Empires has seen worldwide ideas of education, philosophy, religion, arts and sciences. Missionaries and scholars also brought back new ideas from other civilizations - as well as the Jesuit China missions who China and Europe among the knowledge, science, and culture of transmitting in a significant role, Europe from the works, like the Euclid's Elements for Chinese scholars and the Think of Confucius for European audiences. The Enlightenment saw the emergence of a more secular educational outlook in Europe.
In most countries today, full-time education, whether at school or otherwise, is compulsory for all children up to a certain age. Due to this the proliferation of compulsory education, combined with population growth, UNESCO has calculated that in the next 30 years more people will receive formal education than in all human history thus far.
