'Driving the success'

Romney acknowledged that "if you had a class of five that would be terrific. If you had a class of 50, that's impossible." But he said a McKinsey Global Institute study had compared U.S. performance with such countries as Singapore, South Korea and Finland and found that class size didn't matter.

"Gosh, schools that are the highest performing in the world, their classroom sizes are about the same as in the United States. So it's not the classroom size that is driving the success of those school systems," he said. Instead, parental involvement and top-flight teachers and administrators are what make the difference, he said.
