Abstract
Tracking and ability grouping remain among the most hotly debated topics in Czech Republic education today. The Czech education system as in many European, particularly post-socialist countries, enables divide students into different tracks at elementary schools and high schools.
For example Elementary schools "track" students when they divide them into separate classes for specific subjects or for the entire day. Low-track classes tend to be composed of low-income students, usually minorities, while high-track classes are attended by students from socioeconomically successful groups
