Japan and South Korea also have experience in class size control. Japanese school education emphasizes refined training, and the class size is generally small. In a class of 15 students, teachers can pay close attention to students' psychological state and learning progress. Japanese educational circles believe that a small class size helps to create a good teacher-student relationship, which has a positive impact on students' physical and mental health and learning motivation. According to the survey, in small class teaching in Japan, students' participation in class has increased by nearly 30% compared with that in large class.In Europe, countries such as Finland, which are famous for their high-quality education, also implement small class teaching. Finnish schools pay attention to the individualized growth of each student, and the class size is not large, so teachers have more time and energy to tap the potential of students. Teachers can tailor their study plans for students according to their hobbies and specialties. In this educational environment, Finnish students have performed well in programme for international student assessment and other tests, and their innovative ability and comprehensive quality have been widely recognized by the international community.1.

Third, the implementation challenges and coping strategies1. Improve the teaching effect.When the class size is controlled at 15 students, teachers can know more about each student's learning situation. Teachers can provide targeted counseling for each student's weak points of knowledge. For example, in mathematics teaching, teachers may only explain the knowledge points in a large class, but in a class of 15 students, teachers can find each student's problems in algebra, geometry and other different sectors, so as to explain the problem-solving ideas in a personalized way.
Third, the implementation challenges and coping strategiesSchools can also relieve pressure by integrating resources. For example, make rational use of idle space on campus and transform it into classrooms, and share some educational resources through cooperation with the community. At the same time, improve the utilization rate of educational resources, such as using digital teaching equipment to reduce dependence on traditional teaching resources.
