Hi , our local primary has started this year in mixing Y2 & Y3 pupils together.
This has been quite stressfull for the children as they have been moved into a small class away from the friends they had last year and the Year 3 pupils are going over work that they did last year.
Surely this is an absolutely stupid approach for the development of children.
Does anyone else have this in their Primary school and have there been any studies done into the impact of this by the Government.
The class size for this mixed goup is 16 pupils where the year 3 class that my Daughter is in has 33 pupils. Surely a better balance could be achieved.
