First Published in 2000. The education of gifted and talented children is attracting increased interest and attention in schools, LEAs and within government. A widely accepted critical aspect of talent development has until now remained under-represented: namely that the principal factors underpinning all learning are social and emotional ones. This book addresses the complex relationship between intellectual, social and emotional development that is necessary for high achievement and personal fulfilment. The contributors aim to provide relevant practical guidelines for secure and confident learning for pupils that will support teachers, parents and others wishing to help translate potential into performance.
