My daughter is starting at a mixed secondary school in September. It won't affect her yet but they have just informed us that they are going to start mixed year groups for teaching GCSE subjects with an age range between 13 and 16 - presumably year 9 to year 11. Has anyone come across this before? My initial impression is that there is quite a developmental gap - when I was a shy 13 year old I would have found being in a class with 16 year old quite intimidating.
The school already operates a vertical tutoring system.
