AFAIK there are lessons in schools but it is a Catch 22 situation.  Many parents are not going to allow their children on the road unless they are safer for cycling and it would be safer on the roads if there were fewer cars... I agree that a lot more needs to be done.  It is a shame that all the emphasis has been on cleaner cars when there are a lot of dirty lorries and vans.  I know it is more difficult to have clean engines but it would be interesting to see what other countries have done regarding larger vehicles in cities. Completely agree about bikes and riders - and pedestrians - needing to be visible at night AND in the rain.  I couldn't believe recently the number of cars without lights driving on the motorway in the rain with a lot of spray.  Tfl has adverts re cutting speed when it rains but nothing about being seen!  Reckless driving has increased too.  During this holiday we experienced four worrying incidents caused by reckless driving in about 100 metres.  Not enough police.
