although this is an EASY question i will nether the less help u.

you should set out ur essay in a progressive timeline form, in other words from when they are children to mature age citizens,
you should speak about the boys education then the girls as there is much to say in reagrds to the boys and little is to be said about the girls educatuion.
use quotes from plutarch and state any bias in references to THUC due to historical conflict. be sure to include a description of their intensive training and their lifestyle and life at the barracks, be sure to include the ability to marry at the age of 19/20 and seeing their wives in secrecy., be sure to iunclude a referne to discipline and at what age the spartiate becaomes acitizen (30) and put in anything else u would think would be useful.

it prepared them for a future in the army , it prepared them to become elite soliders and withstand pain and handle hardship. it taught the discipline of war and determination.
for women it was so hat they can grow up to have healthy babies.
etc...

do this and u would the exam question.
