The national strategy to improve the identification, education and support of gifted and talented children was introduced in September 1999.

The Hull EiC Partnership’s co-ordinator for the Gifted and Talented (G and T) strand of EiC was appointed in January 2001. The G and T strand currently operates in all 15 secondary schools.

The main elements of the gifted and talented strand are:

Identifying the gifted and talented cohort - a group of gifted and talented pupils including 2-10% of pupils in each year group;
Introducing a whole school policy for the gifted and talented cohort;
Introducing a distinct in-school teaching and learning programme for the gifted and talented cohort
Introducing an extensive programme of out of hours study support opportunities for those pupils, provided through local networks.

 

Each school has their own co-ordinator for Gifted and Talented pupils. The schools within the Hull Partnership are grouped together into 'clusters' of 5 schools with a Lead Co-ordinator who is responsible for gifted and talented provision within each cluster.

Each cluster of schools has formed a network with a range of external partners such as higher education institutions, libraries, museums and businesses to support the provision of out of school hours activities. The Hull G and T clusters have been particularly effective and details of some of their activities can be found on their linked pages.
