Is your child gifted?

By Georgie Watts | Posted: Saturday January 9, 2021

We are constantly creating educational programmes for our students that match their skills and talents. As part of this, we need to hear from parents and carers about our gifted learners.

Here is a Google Form for you to complete if you wish to give us a bigger picture about your child's needs.

This is part of our process to identify gifted and talented students at Kavanagh, and keep them progressing and excelling at school and beyond. We gather data from staff and whānau to triangulate the individual needs of our students. Most will be well catered for in class with our kaiako understanding their students' needs. Some may need more differentiation, and a few will need individual learning plans outside of the curriculum.

We will get back to you after processing the data and triangulating information gathered from your child's teachers to see what next steps will help them get the most out of their education at Kavanagh. In addition, if you have any psychologist reports or other documentation that will help with this process then please forward it to us.

If you have any questions about this then please get in touch through gifted_talented@kavanagh.school.nz
