This course will explore teaching strategies, materials and monitoring systems that will enable more able, gifted and talented pupils to make excellent progress. The course will examine data and other systems for identification of the cohort and suggest ways that schools can monitor and measure progress.
The day will involve practical work and exemplification of teaching techniques that engage and challenge higher ability learners. Delegates will explore the reasons why some gifted and talented pupils make limited progress from KS2 to KS3 or from KS3 to GCSE, whilst others achieve their potential.
