Imberhorne School


	Welcome to the 'Passionate, Gifted and Talented' section of the website. ‘Gifted and Talented’ is a term used to describe students who have the potential to develop significantly beyond what is expected for their age group. The term ‘Passionate’ has been used to describe students who demonstrate a high level of enthusiasm and interest in a subject area. Students are recognised as Gifted and Talented by either teacher nomination or through the use of school data. Passionate Students are nominated by teachers.


	As part of our Passionate, Gifted and Talented Programme a group of Lower School students took part in this year's BBC School Report. You can view the videos they created here.
