Headteachers, principals and senior managers If school or college policies are to be effective, headteachers and managers as well as subject and pastoral teachers must be committed to their success. In particular, their responsibilities must complement those of the gifted and talented coordinator and ideally include line-management of the person charged with coordination. They should take responsibility for ensuring that the policies: show commitment to, and support for, gifted and talented learners; provide a clear framework for subject policies or guidelines. Top of page Points to consider Headteachers, principals and senior managers need to consider the following types of questions. Commitment to policies Is provision for the gifted and talented a prominent feature of the institution's development plan and any institutional targets set? How regularly do curriculum managers and teaching staff refer to the policy for gifted and talented learners? Where there is a gifted and talented coordinator, how is he or she supported by managers? How are the gifted and talented coordinator and/or middle and senior managers accountable to the headteacher/principal and the governing body when it comes to gifted and talented matters? How do managers and curriculum leaders ensure that all teachers plan to meet the needs of all learners? (For guidance on this, see

Sharing information Effective recording and communication systems will ensure that, as far as possible, teachers are aware at the start of each year of: the levels of achievement and potential of all the learners they are going to teach; work already covered; work that needs to be planned for. Good communication between teachers of different phases, and from year to year within a school or college, is essential if suitable provision is to be made for gifted and talented learners. The information shared at point of transfer within and between schools (or settings, colleges, etc) should include details of an individual's. preferred learning styles; particular strengths and weaknesses; displays of resourcefulness and initiative; work covered; targets for further development. Much of this information can be shared through discussion, as well as through documentation.

Exciting, fun, different, mind-boggling, awesome, any one of these words may come to mind as a synonym. It does not matter what your idea of being creative means. Everyone can be creative in all walks of life. Children do not need to wait until they are adults to develop their own creative talents.

Texas School Performance Review Riviera Independent School District August 2000 Chapter 2 EDUCATION SERVICE DELIVERY This chapter reviews Riviera Independent School District's (Riviera ISD) educational service delivery and performance in four key areas: A. Student Performance and Instructional Program Delivery B. Gifted and Talented Program C. Compensatory Education D. Career and Technology Education E. Technology F. Discipline Management and Safety B. GIFTED AND TALENTED PROGRAM State legislation passed in 1987 requires all school districts to provide services for gifted and talented students. In 1990, the State Board of Education (SBOE) adopted a state plan for serving gifted students that was designed to provide guidance to districts on meeting the requirements of the law. The plan also offered assurance that all students would be afforded the opportunity to be fairly and accurately assessed for the appropriate services. In 1995, state law required the SBOE to "develop and periodically update a state plan of the education of gifted and talented students." The plan was designed "to measure the performance of districts in providing services to students identified as gifted and talented." The SBOE plan, adopted in 1996, provides direction for the refinement of existing services and for the creation of additional curricular options for the performance of gifted students. The Texas State Plan for the Education of Gifted/Talented Students identifies five program areas that serve as the basis for measuring how well districts provide services to gifted and talented students. The areas are student assessment, program design, curriculum and instruction, professional development and family-community involvement.

Download this course outline in PDF format Target Audience: Students would be expected to have a general background knowledge of Roman and Greek history. They should be familiar with basic concepts of classical culture, government and religion. Age restrictions: This course is designed for able pupils of between 11 and 16 years of age. Course leader : Graham Birrell Teaching team : Graham Birrell, Terry Walsh and William Stow Broad curricular aims: The traditional themes of the classical world that are studied in schools, those of conquest and settlement, usually provide only a narrow focus of understanding. As well as exploring themes of classical culture and government in greater detail, by comparing the ancient world to the modern, this course aims to provide a different and perhaps more relevant approach to the whole idea of classical civilization and its legacy. It aims to teach us more about how we ended up in the world we live in today and perhaps more importantly, the world we'll be living in the future. In addition, students will acquire a familiarity with language, and its use as a tool of persuasion and even subversion.

The Urgent Need to Teach the Constitution to the Rising Generation November 2001 Dear Friends, The other day I was speaking to a young friend of mine who attends one of the local high schools. He was reviewing with me the classes in which he was currently enrolled. One of them was Advanced Placement American Government. I asked him to tell me about what the class was learning and the methods employed by the teacher. He said the main assignment was that each student had to bring a current issue to class. Three or four issues would then be chosen which would be the basis of the discussion that day in class. He said there quickly develops several different opinions strongly expressed by members of the class as they try to convince others of their point of view. I asked him if the teacher gives any input. To which he replied: "Oh no, the teacher says he doesn't want to influence our minds with his opinions. He merely wants us to be able to convince others of our position. But we have some pretty good discussions." I asked him if the teachers taught any underlying principles of good government to the class. He said no. I asked him if the teacher expected you to read and study the writings of the founders and to learn their reasoning on important issues. He said no. I asked him if he felt there was a serious study of the Constitution itself. Again, he said no.
