multiage
Spanning age groups
Multiage describes educational settings where children of different ages learn together in the same classroom, rather than being grouped by single grade level: a multiage kindergarten-through-second-grade classroom.
The approach emphasizes developmental readiness over strict age divisions and allows older students to mentor younger ones.
