       @futurebird yep, this is one of the (many) reasons I left teaching. Not only big class sizes but bad scheduling means students may have four science lessons with one teacher and two with another in a two week period. Even worse in maths I found. How is that supposed to work? My school had very good behavior. And when a teacher retired and I saw bad behaviour with his replacement I wondered how much the good behaviour was just due to low turnover. We knew those teachers were experienced...

       @futurebird ...and they'd been there a long time. They also all taught us for two years from 13 to 14 years old. In high school our teachers had max 90 students at a time for five months. So more time for each student. Some teachers can manage having more but it seems like an unreasonable thing to expect.
