11 | Pupil groups should be arranged to enable the school to deliver the full range of curriculum subjects and students to receive specialist teaching. At primary school, and in the younger years at secondary (key stage 3), schools may be able to implement smaller
groups the size of a full class. If that can be achieved, it is recommended.
In secondary schools, and key stage 5, the groups are likely to need to be the size of a year group.
Children are kept in their groups for the majority of the classroom time, but mixing into wider groups is allowed for specialist teaching, wraparound care and transport.
