Table of ContentsReviews'This whole book represents an extremely positive, engaging and employable update for schools wishing to keep abreast of current thinking about giftedness' Learning and Teaching Update, July 2010 'This whole book represents an extremely positive, engaging and employable update for schools wishing to keep abreast of current thinking about giftedness' Learning and Teaching Update, July 2010 This is a very accessible book for anyone involved in G&T provision, in either the primary or the secondary phase. It is thoroughly researched and comprehensive in its coverage of the subject and provides an ideal starting point for teachers, senior staff and others who are seeking to develop their knowledge and expertise in the field of G&T education. The author has a wealth of experience which enables her to illustrate points with interesting case studies and practical examples throughout. One strength of the book is its emphasis on students whose abilities may not be recognised, and who therefore miss opportunities that could enable them to achieve their potential, an issue that is central to the present government's 'closing the gap' agenda... All of this adds up to an excellent, summary overview of G&T education that will be useful to anyone - novice or expert - who has an interest in making good provision for our able children.
