Are class sizes too big these days?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Primary, secondary and kindergarten teachers are striking this week as they look for a pay offer that meets inflation at 7.2% and makes concessions around staffing issues - in particular, student to teacher ratios.

Primary, secondary and kindergarten teachers are striking this week as they look for a pay offer that meets inflation at 7.2% and makes concessions around staffing issues - in particular, student to teacher ratios.

A ratio of 1 teacher for 23 students applies for year 11 students, however support staff can be counted as teachers so the reality is that class sizes can be much higher.
What do you think are the ideal sizes for classrooms?

Type NFP alongside your comments if you don't wish these to be shared in the We Say You Say column of the local paper.

Since the introduction of our New Council, this area has been neglected with no maintenance or repair. The pond has a jetty where people can sit and enjoy the view of the wildlife and just enjoy the day. NO it is a dangerous area as the Jetty is rotting away with holes in the rotted boards. part of the jetty has been repaired poorly at some time and is now loose and rotten. (See attached photos).
The council workers came around over 3 weeks ago to tidy up around the pond - the pile of rubbish is still there and has not been removed. (See attached photo).
The paths are falling into disrepair with holes in the seal. My daughter has a disability but still enjoys riding her bike around the park. She has twice had accidents where the wheel of her bike has fallen into a hole in the seal and she has fallen off her bike. Old and young use this park walkway. (See attached photos).
The playpark area is now overgrown with weeds as it is no longer looked after again this is an area where the young families take their children to play. (See attached photos).
There is a pothole in the road just outside 19 Sanctuary Gardens which has been patched numerous times and yet still sinks. This is becoming a hazard for motorists and cyclists as it is just off the roundabout. When are the council going to fix this properly.
When are the council going to accept their responsibility for the maintenance and upkeep of their property. Do we have to wait until someone gets hurt, or some ones child falls through the rotten decking and is seriously injured or drowned. Surely this should be covered under their Health and Safety responsibilities.
And the Council want to up our rates !!! maybe we need a vote of No Confidence in some of our Councilors'.
