In Anglo-Saxon England, the Church became the center of learning and its scholars were sought by Kings like Alfred  to bring scholarship to Europe.

Explanation:

Churches became the centers for learning and education during the Anglo-Saxon kingdoms because of conversion to Christianity, which provided them access to Latin learning. It all started in 597 when the Roman missionaries arrived in Britain, having been sent by Pope to convert the Anglo-Saxons to Christianity. The Anglo-Saxons were slowly convinced to adopt Christian customs. By getting the knowledge of reading and writing through reading the religious sculpture they were able to access the classical learning of the Mediterranean.
