This book contains the results of research projects carried out in
relation to multigrade teaching in Australia and South Africa.
Research in multigrade contexts is not commonly reported and rarely
in book form. The research results have implications for multigrade
teachers, government education personnel, and university teacher
educators. The book also contains chapters with practical advice
for multigrade teachers, including examples of multigrade teaching
used in an Australian seven-grade class (kindergarten to grade 6).
Other chapters contain suggestions for practical strategies a
multigrade teacher can use to reduce the workload involved in
planning for multiple grades. Very little is published in the area
of multigrade teaching, yet the number of multigrade schools
worldwide is huge. Developed countries still have a significant
proportion of multigrade schools (commonly one fifth to one third
of all primary schools or classes). Despite decades of
centralisation of schools and expansion of transport networks, the
number of these schools remains high, mostly in rural areas.
Developing countries established multigrade schools in rural areas
in order to achieve the UN Millennium Development Goal of Universal
Primary Education. Yet, specific training to teach a multigrade
class remains virtually non-existent in initial teacher education
programs worldwide. The value of this book is thus to report
specific research carried out in multigrade contexts but also to
provide practical help for multigrade teachers. This help is needed
as the teachers strive to achieve the UN Sustainable Development
Goal of a quality education, through helping their students develop
the skills and behaviours required for 21st-century learning.
