Class sizes have been a point of contention for a long time now. Even those with no interest in homeschooling realise they need reducing. I was lucky enough to be in a small class in a Rudolf Steiner school, so the teachers would actually be able to guide us individually when we were struggling. They made sure we all grasped what was being taught before moving on. I didn't realise quite how lucky I was until it came time for my girls to attend school.
