Student Grouping
Within a academy situation, we need to group students according to our ability to accommodate them, our ability to teach them and their ability to learn.
Purposes:
-
To ensure that each student is given the opportunity to develop educationally and socially, to the best of their capabilities.
-
To ensure that group size does not produce problems of safety and/or health.
-
To ensure that teachers are not overloaded with work from excessively large groups.
-
To ensure that groups are large enough to allow for useful discussion, when necessary.
- To enable student movement between groups for social and academic reasons.
