My hot take: schools should be geared to everyone. Have advanced classes, normal classes, and below average classes. The teacher can teach according to each class. Everyone should get an education.

Even calling those students Below Average others them. They probably have other forms of intelligence. Or they just don't learn well in the one exact neurotypical classroom that we offer in the US. Or maybe they have issues at home, economic issues, or social issues that are keeping them from succeeding in school. Kids in other top countries are never asked to worry about these things.

Whatever you want to call it, it won't be the normal class. You have to teach according to ones ability.

As for the other factors: I'm in Canada, and yes we do have to worry about all that.

It takes immense resources and more teachers, which is hardly achievable of you want it across the whole country

[-] someguy3@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 year ago

... it takes the exact same amount of resources and teachers. You already have multiple classes (unless you are in a tiny school), split them up.

You forget that quantity of "Super clever" pupils is not equal to the quantity of the rest.

[-] someguy3@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago

...it's not hard to fill out an advanced class. And if the school is tiny, they don't get one. This is pretty standard stuff.
