Just ask your children what they want to do. You may be surprised at what they say. I had mine together in kinder and was sure they would want to stay together in first. I asked and they all wanted to be in their own rooms. I was shocked. Devlopmentally it's supposed to be best for them and if that's what they want, then you should probably do it. Let them see how they like it this year. It's too soon to make the call. I would wait until closer to the end of the year to ask them though.

As for the bad teacher, who's to say if you keep them together they won't all end up in her room? Or that she will even still be there next year?
