* Group work '''should '''finish in one lesson
* The purpose of a school is for children to learn.
* Groups should be formed with the '''same''' pupils every time
* Learning is about memorising facts.
* Teacher should assist pupils for effective group work
* When learning, the background of students is unimportant: Because facts are universally true, so learning of facts does not depend on students' backgrounds.
* '''All''' pupils in the group should be active during group work
* If parents do not encourage their children to learn, children will not learn anything in school.
* Noise is '''not acceptable''' during group work
* Teachers should have low expectations of students' ability: It is not good for students to be challenged in lessons, because it will make them unhappy. It is better for students to work on very simple problems, that they can solve easily.
* Agreements and disagreements are inevitable during group work
* The head teacher knows what's best for the school, and therefore does not need to consult teachers, parents, or students.
* Mixed pace groups are better than same pace groups
* Students do not know what's best for them, so they do not need to be consulted regarding learning or school leadership.
* Group work should '''always promote''' competition amongst different groups
* Group work by pupils is free time for the teacher
* Effective group work needs planning and preparation by the teacher before the lesson
