The school may teach him things like Math, Science, Literature, etc. But he learns more about the world from kids his own age, who learned it in the same process. It's somewhat of a vicious cycle.

It means that it is the boy's fellow students from whom he learns the most, not the formal instruction given at the school.

I think it means that school is a social experience, and students learn more from interacting with each other than they do from their actual lessons.
