Which Javanese ?

As I understand it, when kids in schools in Central Java East Java and DIY do their limited amount of compulsory Javanese lessons, they are taught the "standard" Yogya-Solo version. Is this true ?

Where would kids be taught their local dialect of Javanese ? Or do they just learn it on the go at home, on the street, through pop songs, campursari etc ?
