Reducing class sizes allows teachers to spend more one-on-one time with the students who need it.
\\nThe Government is expected to make an announcement on that today, and in particular reducing class sizes for Years Four to Eight.
\\nThose year groups have the highest student to teacher ratio.
\\nRotorua Intermediate Principal Garry de Thierry says that not all students are the same, and that teachers need more time to appropriately address their needs.
