The society discussed about small class teaching for a long time. There are both advantages and disadvantages. Hong Kong educational government think that small class teaching can reduce the problem of lack of Form 1 students in the future. Small class teaching might reduce this problem. Today, I would like to focus on the effect to students when there is small class teaching. As students are the one who affect most by this program.
Having small class teaching can increase the communication between teachers and students. Teachers can easily follow the results of students. Teachers can teach more detail about the things that students don't understand. This can increase the quality of learning. This is really an advantage for students as learning is really important now for all the students.
There are about 36-40 students in big class. That means students can have over 35 friends in a class. When small class teaching occurs in school, students will have less friends then before. In the society, cooperation between each others is as important as having professional skills. Students should train to be cooperative. When they are having small class teaching, surely they have less chance to cooperate with a lot of people.
Small class teaching might be good for students but if there are not enough facilities to help. I think the benefits won't occurs.
I strongly disagree with the government using small class teaching to reduce the problem of less Form 1 students entering secondary school. This is a silly way. Small class teaching can help students but when the government try to use on this position, sure it's worst for students.
