For this purpose, it is necessary to consider that the classrooms or areas where knowledge is imparted, are appropriate for the students to absorb knowledge and instructions imparted by the teacher. Ideal classrooms encourage cooperation, interaction, problem-solving, and reduces the stress between the students when receiving feedback from their peers. This is why the size of the class or number of students present in the classroom, and the impact of this number on the effectiveness of lessons taught by the teacher. The aim of this research is to examine the issues that are faced due to large size of classes and its impacts on the learning and behavior of the students. The methodology adopted for the collection of data is qualitative, whereas surveys and interviews were used as tools to collect the data. A total of five themes emerged, which highlighted the importance of having a smaller class, which contributed a great deal towards their academic achievement, personalized attention, and getting better support and feedback. Moreover, it was also brought to focus the need for school design and infrastructure management.
