What was the percent of people that went to school in 1750?

In 1750, formal education was not widely accessible, and the percentage of people attending school varied significantly by region and social class. In general, it is estimated that only a small fraction of the population, perhaps around 5-10%, received formal education, primarily in urban areas and among the wealthy. Most education was informal, with many children learning trades or skills through apprenticeships rather than in schools.
