In a heterogeneous population, small class size is a necessity. I would also advocate giving teachers more automony to develop programs and plans that work for them. Finland would be a good model except for its homogeneous population. OUr teachers must work with diverse populations and so must have small classes to do this.

When it comes to getting the best teachers possible into the system, what are your priorities? Rank the approaches below from 1-5, with 1 being your highest priority.
