I believe Shakespeare is still studied at schools because he was such an influence to many and has demonstrated many morals through his plays. His work is also present in everyday life, being the storyline of many modern day movies and books.

2. Shakespeare uses the English language in an amazingly effective and beautiful way.

Also you will discover that he invented many words and phrases that are in use today...too man to mention all, but "All the worlds a stage " is but one. Google Shakespeares words and you will be amazed
