Could you cite a more direct source for this? It's in direct contradiction with the materials the site you linked provided me [0]. If you go to page 17 "September Who are my students?" they do not discourage different classes or tracks existing, they discourage placing students in different tracks without input from the student or their parents. As a former educator that seems sensible to me. Sometimes a student isn't quite ready to enter the more advanced mathematical track but could be made so with if provided some guidance on how to self study. I've seen many high school freshman apply themselves more readily when I laid out the long term consequences of different math tracks.
