Gifted Education

Each Broward County Public School must develop and implement a comprehensive plan to meet the needs of their gifted students. BCPS universally screens all second-grade students for gifted with the CogAT. Services for gifted students are provided in the content areas depending on the students’ needs. These services are not limited to the curriculum and learning environment. Curriculum differentiation is incorporated to provide flexibility in instruction. Strategies used may include:

• In depth study
• A high degree of complexity
• Advanced content
• Variety in content, process and/or product
• Acceleration of instruction

Teachers of Gifted students must be appropriately endorsed by the State of Florida or working towards endorsement. For additional information about the Gifted learner, please visit http://sbbc-gifted.com/
