Able Children in Ordinary Schools

Asserting that state schools can meet the needs of able pupils, this text provides practical strategies for both senior managers and classroom teachers to achieve this end. It explores the issues and problems surrounding good provision and suggests why schools have found this area so difficult. First published in 1997. The purpose of this book is to help teachers of able children in ordinary schools. Very little has been written in Britain about the education of able children, although there is a wide body of research in other parts of the world. What has been written has been primarily from the psychologist's viewpoint or has focused on individual or groups of able children. Such research as has been carried out into provision has focused on selected groups of able children operating in optimum conditions. Both of these elements provide useful information for the teacher but neither is, in itself, sufficient to enable ordinary schools to plan effective provision for their able pupils.
