Welcome to the Redruth Gifted & Talented Home Page!

'Everyone is gifted-but some people never open their package'

At Redruth School we promote and value excellence and achievement in all our students and are committed to providing a stimulating and challenging curriculum which caters for their individual needs.

Definitions:

Gifted students are the more academically able students who have abilities above the expected norms for their age group in one or more subject areas other than art, music, the performance arts and PE

Talented students are more able artistically and in performance and have abilities outside normal performance standards for their age group in art, music, the performing arts and PE

Identification 5-10%

At Redruth we keep a register of our most able students. This register covers all year groups and all subjects and is regularly up-dated. Due to the changing nature of students’ abilities they are placed on the register initially for one year, and the whole register is updated annually. Every department identifies these students using a range of prior attainment data and subject specific criteria.

Provision

Departments are responsible for differentiated class work, homework, out of hour’s activities, extension tasks and varied teaching styles aimed at promoting high order skills.
