The problem is unless you really use the skill a lot you're not really gonna learn it from school. I had to teach myself how to read analog clocks in highschool cause even though I'm pretty sure I learned it in elementary school I grew up with computers and eventually smart phones so I never had to use it.

Edit: Also for context I was born in 2001

We had one in every classroom. So we only had to look at it for reinforcement of the original lesson.

We had them too but at least for me in elementary school I didn't really care what time it was. I remember I knew what position on the clock meant school was done but other then that didn't really need to read it cause the teachers would just bring us as a class to whatever our next class was for that day. By the time I got old enough to start caring smartphones were prevalent enough that I never really needed to learn how to read a clock. It wasn't until highschool where teachers got more strict about enforcing no phones out in class that I then learned how to read clocks so I could know when class would be done.
