We have been asked whether there is a connection between class size and success at
school. There is little evidence to suggest that most studies on class size focus on
student academic performance, but the results are inconclusive. At the elementary and
secondary levels, some studies suggest that smaller classes positively impact academic
performance. Others indicate that class size has limited or no impact on performance.
Similarly, in higher education, some studies indicate no difference on course grades
between large and small classes and others report negative effects on academic
performance. Moreover, there is a dearth of research explaining how and why class size
influences student behaviors and educational outcomes. Additional research is needed
to better understand classroom dynamics related to class size.
