Gifted Education

To showcase the collaboration project developed by the participating individual schools and those in collaboration with the Education Bureau Gifted Education Section, and/or to develop own school-based gifted programmes.

The mission of gifted education is to fully explore and develop the potentials of gifted students systematically
and strategically by providing them with opportunities to receive education at appropriate levels in a flexible
teaching and learning environment.

To cater to the educational needs of gifted students, we advocate the following principles:

• Nurturing multiple intelligences is a fundamental goal of quality basic education and should be the mission
  of ALL schools;
• Gifted education should be part of quality education. The needs of gifted students, like their less able
  counterparts, should basically be met in their own school;
• A broad definition using multiple intelligences should be adopted;
• Exploring students' thinking and creativity abilities and social skills should be the foci of gifted education.
• Schools should provide sequential and multiple educational activities to gifted students at different levels;
• To compile resources collected from educational parties/bodies as support to schools.
