Excerpt from The Individual Pupil in the Management of Class and School The schools of a democracy should offer to each pupil those unique opportunities for acquiring skills, for practice in precise thinking, and for growth in power of appreciation which are attainable by one of his intelligence. This ideal requires that we adjust our standards to the abilities of our pupils. Every pupil in the ideal school system is judged by the best which he can do and not by the median performance of a non-selected group. In order to adjust our schools to the needs of individual boys and girls, our curricula and courses of study must be markedly different for groups of children who vary in ability. We may not rest satisfied with the provision of special opportunities for the feeble-minded, the physically handicapped, and the morally delinquent. It is important that adjustments be made in terms of the varying abilities, achievements, and environmental conditions of children all along the line. It is of surpassing importance to provide facilities which will stimulate the most able children to the attainment of their fullest intellectual development. Our schools have begun to attack this problem. Further progress is dependent upon the more complete diagnosis and guidance for each pupil enrolled in the schools. In this volume. Dr. Mort presents the best that has been accomplished in our schools, as well as suggestions for the improvement and development of our practices in caring for the needs of individuals. The teacher who masters the methods which he presents will get the satisfaction which comes to those who practice the fine art of teaching.

The debate over whether class size matters for teaching and learning is one of the most enduring, and aggressive, in education research. Teachers often insist that small classes benefit their work. But many experts argue that evidence from research shows class size has little impact on pupil outcomes, so does not matter, and this dominant view has informed policymaking internationally. Here, the lead researchers on the world’s biggest study into class size effects present a counter-argument. Through detailed analysis of the complex relations involved in the classroom they reveal the mechanisms that support teachers’ experience, and conclude that class size matters very much indeed. Drawing on 20 years of systematic classroom observations, surveys of practitioners, detailed case studies and extensive reviews of research, Peter Blatchford and Anthony Russell contend that common ways of researching the impact of class size are limited and sometimes misguided. While class size may have no direct effect on pupil outcomes, it has, they say, significant force through interconnections with classroom processes. In describing these connections, the book opens up the everyday world of the classroom and shows that the influence of class size is everywhere. It impacts on teaching, grouping practices and classroom management, the quality of peer relations, tasks given to pupils, and on the time teachers have for marking, assessments and understanding the strengths and challenges for individual pupils. From their analysis, the authors develop a new social pedagogical model of how class size influences work, and identify policy conclusions and implications for teachers and schools.
