Hi DD1 will be a year 2 in Sept and has been placed in a mixed yr1/yr2 class. I have no experience of these but just wondered how they pan out. How are they managed so that the older kids don't feel bad being taught alongside younger ones? There Is a lot of talk amongst parents at the school about kids being moved up a year and being held back a year. I know that's not the case but it adds to the feeling of negativity for the older children in the mixed class.
Also do they tend to keep with the same pattern? Do some children go through the school without experiencing a mixed class? Is it always the same children that get the mixed classes?
Thanks for any advice/ experience
