当11岁以上考试用于选择文法学校的学生时，小学采用分班（根据成绩将孩子安排在一个班级，并始终留在该班级）是很常见的。地方。在20世纪50年代和60年代，这种做法逐渐消失，大多数儿童在混合能力班中接受教育，并有一些班级分组。1990年代，历届政府都表示，应在小学实行某种形式的能力分组，（有些科目的学生按能力分组，其余时间按混合小组授课），然而，尽管有证据表明，在结构化能力组之间的流动并不频繁，而且儿童往往留在同一组，但一些学校还是采用了分流制在学校的整个职业生涯中，限制了他们的教育机会。最近在千年队列研究中对8 875名儿童进行的研究表明，16.4%的二年级儿童在分班上课。Logistic回归分析显示，最好的预测因素是孩子是否出生在2000年秋季或冬季，父母拥有自己的房子，以及孩子的认知能力得分。预测处于最低流的指标是男孩，出生于2001年春季/夏季，有行为问题，出生于单亲家庭，认知能力得分。
The adoption of streaming in the primary school (where children are placed in a class on the basis of measures of attainment and remain in that class all of the time) was commonplace when the 11 plus examination was used to select children for grammar school places. During the 1950s and 1960s the practice died out with most children being taught in mixed ability classes with some in-class grouping. During the 1990s successive governments indicated that some form of ability grouping should be introduced in primary schools, setting (children placed in ability groups for some subjects and taught in mixed groups for the remainder of the time) being preferred, however, streaming was introduced in some schools despite evidence that movement between structured ability groups is infrequent and that children tend to remain in the same groups throughout their school careers limiting their educational opportunities. Recent research based on 8875 children, in the Millennium Cohort Study showed that 16.4% of children in Year 2 were in streamed classes. Logistic regression analysis showed that the best predictors of being in the top stream were whether the child was born in autumn or winter 2000, parents owning their own home, and the child’s cognitive ability score. The measures predicting being in the bottom stream were being a boy, being born in the spring/summer of 2001, having a behaviour problem, being born into a lone parent family, and cognitive ability score.
