All learning is educational and all education involves learning. So it doesn't mean anything.

Selected

formative learning

This is one obvious possibility - the idea being that education doesn't just teach facts, it shapes individuals.
Example sentence:

A focus on formative education means broadening the world of pupils or students through a broad-based cultural transfer that provides them with a compass. Formative education also means giving pupils ideas that will help give them direction...

Note from asker:
