At school we learned it and then would do it at churches along with country dancing.
That was a first school / middle school . At High school it was not done.

the tradition is getting rarer now and churches did not embrace the communities enough and so became less relevant.
And then people complain 'theres no community anymore...' well that is because you did not put the effort into it.

Morris dancing is still about but still a rare thing in my area now.

Other than apathy there is also the 'uncool' and a sneery look at anything traditional in Britain.
Unless its football where people can put money into foreign manufacturing of course.
