78 ¦ Setting, streaming and separating by ability

Should we separate our learners by ability? Setting, streaming or separating by ability is common practice in most schools in some way or form. But is it really best practice? Is there an evidence base to support doing this in our school? In this episode we discuss the research behind separating students by ability or setting and streaming as it is known in the UK. Does it work? Should we keep doing it?  Keep in touch and share widely! Full programme notes are available on www.liamprinter.com/podcast.
