Creating Functional Boy Scout Patrols

Our troop's patrols are organized by age and don't function well. We basically have two patrols: the "chaos" patrol of 11- and 12-year old boys and the "I'm too cool" patrol of older Scouts. How can we create functional patrols where the older Scouts teach the younger ones?
