"Even the slaves?"

"Slaves were not expected to attain anything but a basic education in Greece, but were not excluded from it. Some masters allowed their younger slaves apprenticeships in their workshops; eventually the slaves wares and income would add to their master's wealth. Some of the wealthier students in the Greek academies brought a slave with them to their classes. Slave work ranged from the light domestic work to the heavy work in the mines of Nubia, and other places. In some cases, domestic slaves were ritually welcomed into the house, by a walk around the hearth, and adoption (prior to Pericle's ruling) was not an unlikelihood with child slaves."
