I'm pretty sure that kind of training you're asking about happens at combat schools like Signal. Like Weiss said, Beacon is not sparring and practice, it's fighting monsters.

It seems that combat school is where kids go to learn the bare basics, have their Aura unlocked, forge their weapons, and learn how to properly wield and maintain their weapons.

Huntsman academy is where teens go to learn the more in-depth stuff and actually start applying the training they got in combat school (or.. elsewhere, like outside the Kingdom or, in Weiss' case, home-schooling). It's also where they start actually fighting Grimm and going on missions.

Also, Port teaches about Grimm, not biology.
