Class Size Reduction Education is one of the important things in today's environment. Moreover, people are more concerned about the literacy rate in their country compared to the past. Also, the parents want to give their children the best possible education, and the government of the countries is also trying to provide best education to the students because the future of a country depends on the literacy rate of that country. There are many factors which have great influence on academic achievement
a heated topic both in academic circles and for public concerns. The academic achievements are influenced by many aspects, such as pupil-teacher ratio, disciplines, teaching input, family education, individual efforts, classmates and other off-campus conditions. Above all these factors, many people believe that adjusting class size is the simplest way for developing education. However, class size is one of the important factors in determining successful academic achievement rather than the most crucial
financial data and eleventh grade students ' achievement. A comparison of four groups of school districts designated by ad valorem wealth and SES also was conducted to identify difference in student achievement. The findings of the study reveals, total per student expenditure and direct average teacher salary had a direct relationship with the achievement in mathematics but not in languages and art, no significant direct relationship with the student achievement was shown for instructional-operation expenditure
Class Size Affecting Academic Achievement According to Malcolm Gladwell in Chapter Two of David and Goliath, economist Caroline Hoxby found that there was not any significant data indicating smaller classroom sizes had a greater effect on a child’s academic achievement. However, Diana Whitmore Schanzenbach from National Education Policy Center (NEPC), at Northwestern University has contradicted Gladwell’s assertion that smaller classroom sizes were not an academic advantage. Schanzenbach reviewed
lives makes all the difference. A national study by Add Health found that children who feel a connection with their school are less likely to engage in deviant adolescent behavior (Blum & Rinehart 1997). Students may have the same state regulated academic standards and may have similar funding but school districts can have vastly different learner outcomes. Neighborhood schools can bring together students, parents and community. Teachers can be responsive to their student’s needs by being knowledgeable

institutions, which lead to very large class sizes. Education policies governing states concerning the maximum class size are common in the American K – 12 education system. The introduction of standardized release of funds to schools and the lowering of the teacher student ratios in schools, and therefore consequently reducing the class sizes across states, would greatly improve the education system in America. Class sizes are strongly assumed to influence student learning at institutions of learning
