the Victorian schools were fairly small with only an open fire to keep them warm
From my experience of visiting National Trust properties (UK), Victorian classrooms are always portrayed as quite small something akin to the front room of a house. This equates roughly to a space about 4m by 4m. Desks may exist, but usually long benches similar to those in church pews are used. A lectern is at the front. Vertical grouping was commonplace, often with the very young being seated next to children two or three times their age.
