as it should be. what kid is reading shakespeare?
The most common cut off I'm seeing for Gen Z is 2012, so by that metric they're at least 13 years old. I don't know about school curricula these days, but I'd say all but the youngest 2-3 years have had a decent chance of having Shakespeare as a school assignment.
My niece is 9 (Year 4) and studying Macbeth. We didn't do that until Year 10, I think. We did Romeo and Juliet in Year 8.
