Harries, D. and Tennant, G. (2012) Transition of pupils from Key Stage 2 to 3 deemed gifted and talented in mathematics: an initial study. Mathematics Teaching, 226. pp. 9-12. ISSN 0025-5785
Abstract/Summary
In this article Geoff Tennant and Dave Harries report on the early stages of a research project looking to examine the transition from Key Stage (KS) 2 to 3 of children deemed Gifted and Talented (G&T) in mathematics. An examination of relevant literature points towards variation in definition of key terms and underlying rationale for activities. Preliminary fieldwork points towards a lack of meaningful communication between schools, with primary school teachers in particular left to themselves to decide how to work with children deemed G&T. Some pointers for action are given, along with ideas for future research and a request for colleagues interested in working with us to get in touch.
