During the takeoff roll in the low-speed region; we received am ECAM F/CTRL GRND SPLR fault 3+4. We assumed this was an ECAM associated with our current deferral F/CTL AIL SERVO fault and decided to continue rather than abort. When at a safe altitude; we reviewed the ECAM in detail and concluded that this was a separate issue and we should have aborted.
On takeoff from ZZZ [Runway] XX; we received an ECAM at about 60 kt. for Ground Spoiler 3+4; which we thought was associated with the Aileron Servo Fault deferral. I elected to continue the takeoff and once airborne we were able to tell that it was indeed a separate issue. We should have rejected the takeoff. Unfortunately; the Aileron Servo Fault deferral generated multiple transient ECAMs during start and power changes and we became accustomed to them. They went away in a second or two. On the takeoff roll; we thought it was yet another transient and associated ECAM. I had talked to the inbound Captain who gave us the jet initially in ZZZ1 and he mentioned that there were a lot of stray ECAMs associated with the deferral and it probably added to my thinking that this was another one of those. Airborne; we ran the QRH checklist and determined our landing distances for ZZZ1; made the write-up; and landed normally.
A320 flight crew reported receiving a Spoiler System ECAM alert on takeoff and elected to continue the takeoff. At altitude and reviewing the ECAM alert; flight crew discovered takeoff should have been rejected and wrote up the alert for maintenance.
