More Able students (formerly known as 'Gifted and Talented') have been defined as those students who have one or more abilities developed to a level significantly ahead of their year group (or with the potential to develop these abilities).
More Able pupils are those who will exceed the expectations for their age group, either in all subjects or just one. The More Able are a diverse group and their range of attainment will be varied; some do well in statutory national curriculum tests or national qualifications. However, being More Able covers much more than the ability to succeed in tests and examinations.
More Able students comprise around 5-10% of the schools’ population. At All Saints we identify the More Able students in all subjects.
