I can definitely understand your concern. Often, focus on equity can manifest as lowering the ceiling for all students, rather than lowering the floor so more students can access 'the room.'

In our pods, we have space for accelerated learners who want zero constraints on their progress (i.e., just let me go as fast as I want!). We do our best to match them with learners who are equally paced (so they may work together to challenge each other) AND those who may not be as accelerated (so they may learn to work with a variety of student profiles).

To continue the analogy from before, we are all about expanding the room so all types of learners can succeed.
