Morphology
coeducational = educational (transparent) = co + education + al
The base adjective 'educational' is transparently modified by 'co-' to mean education for both sexes together.
Etymology
Coeducational joins co- meaning 'together' (like in cooperate) and educate meaning 'to teach', so it simply means teaching students 'together', that is, both boys and girls in the same school.
