Results from a systematic observation study of class size effects on pupil classroom engagement and teacher pupil interaction‘, paper delivered to the American Educational Research Association Annual Meeting 2008. “… the main implication of this study is that smaller classes can benefit all pupils in terms of individual, active attention from teachers, but that the lower attaining pupils in particular can benefit from small classes at secondary level.”
