Some parents at our school feel very strongly about it. Our DC currently in Yr5, and the parents are going to try get assurances in writing about our future Yr6s not being mixed with younger children, next academic year.
They feel that our (future) Yr6s won't concentrate as well or do as well on SATs if they have Yr5s in same class.
I TOTALLY didn't understand why the parents thought that way, or why they valued the Yr6 SATs so much. Can anyone enlighten me? Would you feel the same?

Is it a bad thing for Yr 6s to be mixed with Yr 5s?
