spartan boys leaned how to read and write but a majority of what they learned was training to be a solider.

Spartan boys were taught to fight, kick, spit, bite, scratch and get into fights with other boys. Athenian boys were learnt to be polite and to be civilised.
Athenian children were usually raised in a more laid-back method. Most were schooled when they were young. Spartan boys were raised to be warriors. They would learn to fight at a young age and would be sent to military academy until they reached the maximum age. Once they reached the maximum age, they would be required to join the army. If one was weak, he was left to die on a cliff or mountain.

because they needed to have known military things to be a soldier its pretty obvious
A boy's life in Athens focused on education, arts, and intellectual pursuits, while a Spartan boy's life focused on military training and physical strength. Athenian boys received formal schooling and participated in activities like theater and sports, while Spartan boys underwent rigorous military training from a young age.
yes- they went to a type of "agoge" like the spartan boys but they did not focus on military. they did wrestling and gymnastics and various calisthenics
In ancient Sparta, boys at the age of 7 were taken from their mothers and went to live in barracks to begin military training. At age 20, they were declared fully-trained soldiers and put on active duty. At age 30, Spartan soldiers no longer had to live in the barracks.At age 7, Spartan boys were taken from their mother and began military training. They lived in barracks with other boys.
Spartan boys were trained to be soldiers from a very young age. They were taken from their homes at the age of seven and sent to military schools.

Both boys and girls were raised by women until the age of seven At 7 boys were taken from their mothers and grouped together in "packs" and were sent to what is almost equivalent to present-day military boot camp. At age 20, they became a soldier in the Spartan Army.
Spartan boys began their military training at the age of seven. They entered the agoge, a rigorous education and training program designed to develop discipline, physical fitness, and combat skills. This training continued until they were around 20 years old, after which they could join the ranks of the Spartan army as full soldiers.
Dedication.
At the age of 7 they were sent up into the mountains to survive until they were 15.
When they were adults - 18. Before that they were cadets - just the same as in today's societies.
