Medieval education in western Europe is mainly reflected in the education of churches and secular feudal lords. Among them, in the Middle Ages, the Catholic Church had a great influence on the political and cultural life of many feudal vassal states in Western Europe. They set up church schools at all levels, mainly including monasteries, cathedrals and parochial schools, to train the needed talents for the church.
