Hi,
It's a good idea for you to get a good education.

It's a way of giving advice. There is often a kind of mild threat implied.

eg You would do well to get a good education. If you don't, you'll never get a good job.

eg Before you answer this policeman's questions, you would do well to speak to a lawyer.

Best wishes, Clive
