My dd's school have told us that they want to put her on the G&T register as she is "streets ahead" of every other child in her year (last year she was assessed as a level 4 in English - she is 7).
My question is, what does that actually mean in practice? Do you get extra work? Different work? Are there any advantages when applying to/moving to secondary school? Are you externally assessed? Are you reassessed each year? Is there 1 register or different ones for different subjects?
Sorry to be so completely clueless and basic, but although of course I've heard of G&T I can't find out much about the realities (even from studying previous threads!)
