As someone with experience teaching younger people (middle school students) programming, I have also seen this three-way split, though it may not be an even one.
1. Learners who will succeed, regardless of the amount and nature of instruction.
2. Learners who will not be able to grasp the material, due to lack of engagement, interest, self-efficacy, or some other related factors that cannot easily be fixed in a one-to-many classroom setting.
3. Learners who will succeed with the right kind of instruction, but will flounder without it.
Effective instructors try to gauge who falls into the third category, and then concentrating their efforts on these individuals.
