Suitability: This Webinar-on-Demand is suitable for new and experienced HLP Leaders and SLT in all phases.  

Webinar description: How robust is your identification of High Potential Learners? Does your register accurately reflect the make-up of your school community?  This webinar will look at strategies to improve identification, looking beyond attainment and considering how to reveal learners’ potential if given the right support, challenge and opportunities. The webinar includes ideas for making sure that disadvantaged and disengaged learners are appropriately identified, as well as learners with Dual or Multiple Exceptionality (both high learning potential and SEND) who are often overlooked as their potential can easily be masked by their other needs. It includes a suggested template for an informative register.
