- PeterisP 6y agoAs long as you permit or even enforce periodic rotation between the "tracks" when appropriate given the performance/speed of learning, you might as well start early.
- sangnoir 6y agoIt's not uncommon for students to switch between top 5% and bottom 5% - yet people act as if its static. Education and chid development are ridiculously complex. It's not possible to have a solution that solves for everyone.
- eru 6y agoThat's a good question that has several reasonable answers (also depending on context), so we should run some proper experiments to find which answers are best. Though from a policy point of view, we don't need to know those answers: different schools should try different answers (including sending all kids to the same class), parents should send their kids to the schools they deem the best overall package.
