We should be looking at the top kids and looking to stretch them. As there should be activities that stretch them,
Students of the same ability working together.
It is good in maths and Year 10 economy. 
We could stream further and they follow eachother  in different groups.

Our goal is the same. To enable all students to make excellent progress regardless of their starting point. We need to ensure that we aim to teach to the top and challenge all students.

In fact, recent evidence suggests it may actually be detrimental, particularly for low-attaining or mid range students.  http://evidenceforlearning.org.au/toolkit/setting-or-streaming/ 
I wonder whether it is worth considering why we stream and whether we think it is actually beneficial to students overall.

A few students who are considered gifted and talented do not have the required grit or work ethic to achieve their best. Regardless of profession, how hard you work is the main determinant of success. Are students receiving this message frequently enough?]]> 2017-07-05 22:30:58 UTC https://padlet.com/fcarvalho/wwlppdz5iszt/wish/178141801 jramsey6 https://padlet.com/fcarvalho/wwlppdz5iszt/wish/178142245 We have a lot of valuable data to inform who is gifted and talented. It ensures that gifted and talented students do not fall through the cracks. As a teacher, you are aware of students potential and conscious of the need to really challenge them. The learning support profiles on SEQTA are great. They provide a valuable insight into individual students needs. I find the suggested extension strategies really useful. Filipa is clearly very enthusiastic, passionate and knowledgable about this area.    ]]> 2017-07-05 22:42:40 UTC https://padlet.com/fcarvalho/wwlppdz5iszt/wish/178142245 Class OneNote offers the possibility for two levels running in one class - may be doing this soon with a student studying Year 10 French from Year 9 classroom.
