Are class sizes too big these days?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Primary, secondary and kindergarten teachers are striking this week as they look for a pay offer that meets inflation at 7.2% and makes concessions around staffing issues - in particular, student to teacher ratios.

A ratio of 1 teacher for 23 students applies for year 11 students, however … View more
Primary, secondary and kindergarten teachers are striking this week as they look for a pay offer that meets inflation at 7.2% and makes concessions around staffing issues - in particular, student to teacher ratios.

A ratio of 1 teacher for 23 students applies for year 11 students, however support staff can be counted as teachers so the reality is that class sizes can be much higher.
What do you think are the ideal sizes for classrooms?

Hi, a few people have been asking me about my solar battery setup which kicked in during the flooding blackout, and I was able to run the fridge, have internet and charge phones etc.

There is no install costs and they worked out what size I needed based on power bills, and monthly it costs a little under what we normally were paying on a reasonable power company. They own the gear, they replace anything as necessary over time too. It is a 20 year contract and promise what you do use from the grid will never increase in price over that time. If you sell you can include it in your sell price and pay it back, or transfer the contract to the new owner.

If you are serious and want to have a nosey you can organise it through them, and this link is a referal that will flick a little cash my way. It'll assist me chop down my horrendously large Old man pine that requires a crane to assist, which is crazy expensive. Also they use a local reputable Electrical business to do the install.

Pi, also known by the Greek letter “π,” is a constant value used in math that represents the ratio of a circumference of a circle to its diameter, which is just about 3.14….15…9265359… (and so on). Not only that, but the fourteenth of March is also Albert Einstein’s birthday, so all together it’s nothing short of a mathematician’s delight.
