My school is having a new tutoring system, Your thoughts and reviews please?
Currently we have A horizontal tutoring system which is basically where we have 28 pupils in a form of the same year. However my school is currently introducing a new system called "Vertical tutoring" that is there there is going to be a mixture of different students from different years in 1 form. Eg. 4 people from year 7 , 5 people from year 8, 5 people from year 9, 4 people from year 10 and 4 people from year 11 Inside 1 form. Do you think this is a good idea? Your thoughts please :)

At my school we use the horizontal system, which works well because you can comunicate with your friends etc, however, another of the local schools uses the vertical system, which works really well because the younger students get to make friends with older students, which works well if they have a problem. I think both ways are good, it's just experimenting!

bad idea. the teacher would have to know the syllabus for all the grades involved in their class. stick with the horizontal system
