Hi, as you see my sims are complaining that theres no education, although i have an education level in my megatower. The education level is by the way far from filled up, its actually empty. Doesn anybody know why this is happening?

I bet your issue is with the known Education bug of student disappearing when they're taken to neighboring cities.  

I for one have started to play using grammar schools to the fullest upgraded extent possible then, when financially feasible, switching over to a HS but not using those busses that come with it.  It's these busses that are able to leave your cities and never return students.  I also noted that it's these busses that go into the MT's as well even in cities that I've intentionally not placed school bus stops too.

After getting the HS up and running, I turn off the excess upgrades at the grammar school and funnel the overflow of students to the HS.  So far it's been working for some new cities I've started.  But lately, I've been going back to some older cities to best as possible reverse the lost students to bring education levels back up in these cities.  I tend to destroy homes that gave no educated students when the time is 5:55 AM.  And slowly, student enrollment and education levels are on the rise at the time.

Best of Luck!!

All schools are broken but- community college.     Never use ANY other school but these.     Place then DIRECTLY in front of your megatowers-  problem solved!

It's been my experience that if I start out with the community college as the sole "school", things do indeed work.  But eventually I start to see messages from $$ and $$$ residents "demanding" education or complaining they miss going to school.    After following them around and noting things like traffic not effecting them from driving to the college, I plop down a grammar school with no bus stops near by and the students walk to school and the message eventually go away...   That's how I've solved my education problems along with the advice I gave previously.
