We had a mixed top class PE group, then Set 2 Girls, Set 2 Boys, Set 3 Girls, Set 3 Boys. I was in the lowest set for PE because I didn't like it, and when I got the opportunity I didn't go because I wanted more time to do
actual coursework. (Yeah I really really hated PE haha.) I was in top set for everything else. God knows how I got in top set maths, haha.
The education usually puts all the best resources in the middle sets, because they can push up the league tables this way. The bottom set are usually labelled as 'no hopers' so they just leave them alone. Top set are usually able to manage by themselves and get the results they need on their own, so all the resources go into pushing the middle sets to get the grades. Pretty crappy way of doing it IMO, but hey. (I did Education Sociology)
Anddd this is way off topic
