GIFTED AND TALENTED OVERVIEW Lead Teacher - Kathryn Robinson
Gifted and Talented addresses the needs of the most able students in the school. There are many definitions of Gifted and Talented. At Parrs Wood we identify students as Gifted Learners as those who have abilities in one or more subjects in the statutory curriculum other than Art and Design, Music and PE. We recognise Talented Learners as those who have abilities in Art and Design, Music, PE or Performing Arts such as Dance and Drama. Recognising Gifted and Talented students is extremely important in ensuring that all students have access to the distinct curriculum to which they are entitled to. The school uses many different forms of assessment and activity to ensure that students showing a particular gift and or talent are catered for within their lessons. Ensuring that Gifted and Talented students are set appropriately challenging work will help ensure consistency in the quality of the learning and teaching and also help our most able students achieve highly.
