    since some parts of class they were then bored. 
    Well, you learn to deal with it
It's a crucial life skill.

I'm highly doubtful that forcing young kids to be bored (by making them progress/learn slowly, when they could be learning more) is the best way to do it.

Oh I'm not disagreeing. Forcing boredom is not the way. But preventing it at all costs may not be either.
