This article describes the results of a second school improvement study directed at schools with mixed-age classes, and compares the results of this second study with the first study. The second improvement study examines the effects of a staff development programme which introduced selected findings from teaching effectiveness research into ongoing school settings with mixed-age classes. In addition to the staff development programme the effects of coaching are also evaluated. In contrast to the first improvement study the staff development programme was implemented by teacher educators and school counsellors in the regular educational support context (in-service teacher education). A quasi-experimental, treatment-control group investigation was designed to test the effects of the staff development programme 'Dealing with mixed-age classes', and the effects of coaching. Based on pre- and post-training classroom observations, the second improvement study--like the first one--revealed a significant treatment effect for pupils' time-on-task levels in mixed-age classrooms, and for teachers' instructional and classroom management skills. Only two coaching effects were found: for organising effective instruction and for dealing with disturbances. Time-on-task levels improved more strongly in classes of coached teachers. In the second improvement study the effects on teacher instructional and classroom management skills, and pupil behaviour are smaller than in the first study. The staff development programme as conducted in regular in-service settings by teacher educators and school counsellors was less effective than the staff development programme as conducted in an evaluation setting by the designers of the programme. |
