In Peter the Great's time - and until well into the 19th century - king's sons never attended schools, and starting in the 19th century only had an occasional and not too arduous stay at a university that then awarded them a honorary doctorate.

Princes were home (or rather, palace-)schooled by Governors and private tutors. Peter the Great was exceptional in that he took a lot of 'practical' on-the-spot private tuition even after reaching adulthood, especially in the field of ship building.
