I was thinking the same but was afraid that it was common knowledge and it was just me!

Why isn't this part of the classroom curriculum?

I've never heard of tefillin lessons.
When we picked up my son's tefillin, the sofer showed him how to put them on.
When he put them on for the first time, my husband helped him, and he went to my son's yeshiva's minyan for the first few days after that to be available in case he had a problem.

In our community it is common to bring schnapps and rugelach to Shul the morning of the first time laying tefillin. Generally 1 month before they turn 13. That month is to practice.
Some have a minhag to not put them on at all until the actual day.

My understanding was that it’s the father’s job to teach him.

It's usually something that the father practices with him in advance. If he's nervous, the sofer should be willing to supervise and advise for no extra charge. No need for paid lessons; I've never even seen them advertised.

My boys were first shown how to put them on by the soifer that wrote the tefillin. Then my husband practiced with them and guided them a few times until they figured it out. They also learned how to do it and all the halachos in school as part of the curriculum .
