My friend went to a rural school in Ireland, albeit obviously years ago. She said it was really difficult for the teachers as although there was only a handful in each class the age range was massive. My friend had 2 other children the same age as her.

I went to a very small school with only 2 class
rooms , one class was age 4 up to 8 then the older class was 9 to 11 I think ? and i always blame that on my bad punctuation ect you can all see it's not the best because the teacher was learning different ages at once which would have been hard .
A school with 25 pupils 
didn’t even know that was a thing!

Beggys ‘friend’ yesterday 
The primary school nearest to me has more pupils but all of the classed are mixed ages. So reception and Y1 are together, then Y2, Y3 and Y4 are all together and Y5 and Y6 are together.
I remember being in a mixed class throughout my primary schooling and it was never a problem for me, probably a benefit in fact (I was a clever kid so usually did the work for the year above, kept me stimulated), but for kids who need more focused attention and guidance I can imagine it's a tough environment. If a teacher is covering multiple curriculums and topics for kids of a huge range of abilities and levels, I'm sure it's really hard to provide that 1-to-1 attention that some kids do need to progress.
Poor Alfie. Even at school he's not likely to be getting the support he needs, and we know he's definitely not getting it at home. I think any regular parent would be doing their best to either move schools to provide him with more support or make sure he's getting what he needs at home to supplement his learning.

Did he attend that school previously or did he move to a different school?
He must have been in another school ? before they moved to Dingle headquarters
Sorry going back to her ad she says "to make food" surely she means to prepare and cook the food 
Also the photo of her bum hanging out she has such manly shoulders

I bet they did zero research into the catchment area
Yeah he was in another school for the start of reception and left after 3 months.
I say make food. Might be a northern thing I dunno. I say it in a casual way. Professionally I'd say I'm going to cook.Sorry going back to her ad she says "to make food" surely she means to prepare and cook the food

She's an habitual liar. She's probably talking about some work experience from school, that's the only way any medical based practice or hospital would have her working their. This will sound mean, but her vocabulary and literacy skills are poor, she would be too much if a risk in such a job
Years back I work as a receptionist for my uncle’s surgery as a summer job. I can honestly say those people have to put up with so much tit from idiots.
You need to be very on the ball as well to do the job.
Yeh I remember when they moved and she did the vlog where she was talking about the “bad men” and he said he was sad because he was gonna miss all of his friends at school when he went to the new one
I didn’t realise he was only there 3 monthsAh really maybe it is a northern thing then my bad lol
Maybe I’ve got too much time on my hands this week as having to isolate but I reckon Beggy is missing a trick. She is like a walking parody / soap opera. Everyone knows you can visit TV sets. She could set up ‘Dingle Tours’ a bus could travel around all the dingle hotspots. I’d pay good money to go on that for a laugh.
Like I said - too much time on my hands

I've said it many times when the going was good with Channel Mum she should have put all that money into converting their barn into an air b&b which main selling point could have been that it was the house from all creatures great and small and perhaps partnered with local businesses where they could have done a package deal with places such as the pub featured in it https://www.radiotimes.com/tv/drama/all-creatures-great-and-small-filming-locations/
Been awol but thought I would say I’m back!!! Never forget this gem
