Creative Thinking for Independent Learning

How do you ensure that gifted and talented students achieve their potential?

Gifted and Talented students in school are often underachieving because they have not developed their emotional intelligence in line with their IQ.  This can lead to anxiety, depression, hyperactivity disengagement at school and frustration in life.

If able children fail to achieve their potential it can have a negative impact on the schoolÂ’s contextual value added results.  The curriculum can be differentiated but.....

  • How do you ensure the brightest students are motivated to work hard?
  • Ensure they have the high expectations needed to achieve? 
  • Can your high achievers communicate at the highest level? 
  • Can your high achievers manage their minds and develop thinking skills?
