If working in education in Term 4 is not hard enough with report writing, end of year concert and whatever else already going on, we also have to start thinking about the following year and deciding how students are going to be grouped together. In episode 3 we discuss the often frustrating process of class placements and how it can tear normally harmonious staff rooms apart.

We discuss different ways we have seen it done, what worked, what didn't and how to make sure that students are at the forefront of our minds, not our own egos.
