in a few paragraphs, what was William Shakespeare's education?

Explanation:

William Shakespeare would have attended King Edward VI Grammar School in Stratford-upon-Avon from the age of 7 in 1871 and left school and formal edication when he was 14. During his time at school, the week was five full days of work and halk-day on Thursday for 40-44 weeks. Over 2,000 school hours done, rather than the average school hours. From 6am - 5pm. His education would include Latin taught from the Tudor text book which is known as Lily's Latin Grammar and they would be expected to translate Latin to Englisj and vice versa.

His teachers were predominantly Catholic, so his education was influenced by his beliefs.  William Shakespeare was expected to speak Latin at all times in order to improve his fluency in the language. Any boy caught speaking English at the school would be punished. The punishments were severe and painful. Fifty strokes of the cane was not uncommon

This is only some information I know and I hope it's helpful..

I actually read this poem upon reading your question, And I can conclude that it would be "Blue as blood on his left forearm"

You see, he is speaking of the numbers that were put on his fathers arm between his wrist and forearm as a numbering system.
