“As long as we think about the competitive power a school might possess because of its size rather than what the daily social experience will be for the vast majority of children (most of them not football players) we are missing the boat. What all children want is a safe environment where they are known and appreciated. I do not believe it is possible to provide such an experience for enough children in gigantic schools.” EducationSchoolsClassroom SizeSchool AdministrationSchool Size Book:Best Friends, Worst Enemies: Understanding the Social Lives of Children Source: Best Friends, Worst Enemies: Understanding the Social Lives of Children
