There were no medieval schools. The only people who could read and write were the priests and monks. Monks produced books and rewrote The Bible. They would work years on one book because it was done by hand. They also collected books and kept small libraries that they would use. 90% of the population could not read or write.

Middle Ages that are still open today, so clearly there were schools in the Middle Ages.
