This
website was created for schools in the Brighton & Hove
'Excellence in Cities' cluster working with 'Gifted & Talented' children aged 9-12 during
the period 2004-6. The site continues to attract many visitors and the G&T
News
and
Resources
sections
are regularly updated. G&TWISE
has reviewed this website as follows:
"...examples
of good practice that have taken place in local schools, accompanied by
excellent pictorial records and video clips...This site is valuable, not just for the Excellence in Cities schools in
Brighton and Hove. Its overall content will assist in reviewing policy
and practice for G&T provision and support through the wealth of
suggested resources."
