The Renaissance first took place in Italy. The Italian Renaissance was driven by the revival of ancient Roman culture, followed by the revival of ancient Greek culture, and quickly affected the education sector. People discovered a brand-new beautiful world from the works of ancient Greece and Rome, and the worship of humanities quickly spread throughout Italy. Some secular schools, different from medieval church schools, were established, with secular teachers and secular humanities, which broke the monopoly of the church on educational leadership. The theoretical and practical activities of some educators have further promoted the development of Italian humanities education.

Classical education is an important educational concept, which plays a positive role in improving people's cultural quality, aesthetic quality and ideological quality.
