If you are currently a student, then a dream about education – attending classes, taking exams, and so on – can reflect real-life concerns.
However, if your school days are long past, then a dream about education can be a message that you need to take what you have learned from past experiences and use that knowledge to help you to cope with a current situation.
You may dream about your past education when something happens in your life that reminds you of when you were school age.
Dreaming about being back at school can mean that you wish that you could go back to your childhood, when you had fewer responsibilities.
However, if you dream that you are at school and you are being disciplined by a teacher or by the principal, you might need to discipline yourself better in real life.
Sometimes, education in a dream can represent spiritual knowledge.
