The gifted and talented program at St Ursula’s College is a holistic one. It aims to extend and enrich all aspects of a student’s life at school and is underpinned by both the Ursuline tradition and the strong pastoral care ethos of the College. It embraces contemporary educational research in gifted education and government and CEO initiatives. Students are screened for the program using broad selection data. They are offered differentiated activities within the classroom and challenging activities and competitions with students of similar ability. A trained, cross curricula team promotes gifted and talented issues across Key Learning Areas. Gifted and talented students also have access to a wide range of extra-curricular activities. |  |
