Ofsted and the Gifted and TalentedAre you confident that your school has effective provision in place for learners identified as able, gifted and talented (AGT)? AGT pupils are one of the groups identified in the Ofsted framework and Ofsted will be likely to observe how well these pupils make progress and fulfil their potential in your school. The Ofsted evaluation schedule acknowledges that such pupils may require ‘particularly perceptive and expert teaching’. The new approach developing in Hertfordshire will support you to consider and clarify the co-ordinator role, raise awareness of the issues of teaching AGT learners and consider ways to develop effective classroom practice. We can work with you to audit and evaluate your practice using Institutional Quality Standards (IQS) and Classroom Quality Standards (CQS) to lead improvements in teaching and learning.
