[quote=Anonymous]I think the research says that class size doesn't always correlate with better teaching. There was a study where the number had to be below 20 to make a difference and that after 20 it didn't really matter as much as the qualifications and ability of the teacher. On the other side of the spectrum, at some point the class becomes too much for a teacher to handle and so you get teacher burnout, the teacher can't easily meet with all of the students. Basically the reason class size can't be too large is because the teacher doesn't have enough time to handle all the students during the school day and there isn't enough space for all of them often.[/quote]
