Sort of! It was called a public school because the 2 options for children growing up in Elizabethan England were to be tutored at home, or go out (in public) to a grammar school. So, it would have cost money, but it would still have been called a public school.

What was William Shakespeare's school called?
Shakespeare went to the Stratford Grammar School (called King Edward VI School nowadays, then called the King's New School) at around age 6 or 7. There may have been some rudimentary instruction in letters, divinity etc. at a "Dame School", a kind of home school run by local women.
What are facts about the local grammar school Shakespeare attended?
We assume that Shakespeare attended the only grammar school in Stratford, which was then called the King's New School. It was still relatively new at the time, as it had been founded by Queen Elizabeth I's brother Edward VI, which is why it is now called Edward VI grammar school. Edward VI was the only king called Edward who reigned before Shakespeare's day who did not have an Elizabethan history play written about him (Peele's Edward I, Marlowe's Edward II, the anonymous (possibly Shakespeare) Edward III, Heywood's Edward IV, and Shakespeare's Richard III which deals with Edward V) Curiously, the actor Tim Piggott-Smith, who has acted in Shakespeare's plays as well as the film V for Vendetta and others, attended the same school.

What school did William Shakespeare went during high school?
High schools did not exist in his time, so he didn't go to high school. He probably finished school about 15 and the next time we hear about him he is 18. His school (we think) was called the King's New School, and it still exists under the name King Edward VI Grammar School in Stratford. It was a Grammar school, which was a secondary school, not unlike a high school.
What was William Shakespeare's grammar school?
The grammar school in Stratford, then called the King's New School had been founded by King Edward VI (Queen Elizabeth I's brother). Shakespeare probably attended it from the ages of 9 to 15 or so, from 1573 to 1579. However there is no documentation to prove that he even went to that school, never mind when. We can only guess from what was typical and from the fact that he had a good knowledge of the schoolbooks of the era.
