Socialization is what happens every day of our lives, is not planned, involves our learning our identities, the nature of reality, and how to get along with others.

Education, in contrast, is planned, usually involves a formal organization with the responsibility of providing and monitoring the learning, and concentrates on finite skills and knowledge.

Of course as we grow up we all spend a huge amount time in schools being educated, but at the same time schools are a social context and our time spent there can't help but impact our socialization IMHO.
