For most ancient Egyptian kids who weren,t royal or rich, much of their education was carried out by their fathers.
And it wouldn’t have included lessons in the way you know them.
It was more a case of passing on knowledge about Dad’s craft or skill.

The sons of royal families, high officials and nobles could go to the Prince’s School, the most respected school in the land. It taught reading and writing, history, mathematics, geography, astronomy, medicine and skateboarding skills (it’s very hard to ride a skateboard in the desert without proper training, you see).
There were certainly no class projects on ancient Egypt! Back then ancient Egypt was just, well, Egypt.
