Excellent.

Now we just need to find a way to get the not so smart kids engaged from primary school. They need positive attention and feedback too.

But this is a good result here.

Actually Bill Gates' foundation is publishing a study that shows that class size is not an atomic indicator, they hypothesize that it's class size and the quality of the teacher. So if you have a really good teacher that gets the students excited about learning those kids will learn even if you have 50 (my number) kids in the class. If the teacher is less experienced not as engaging that's when you need to reduce class sizes.

Looks like the key to our future is an army of well educated, intelligent, well paid teachers
