Opis

Many factors contribute towards an able child achieving or under-achieving in school. This text is based on research which highlights these factors, focusing on the problems that all able children may experience. The authors aim to alert parents and teachers to the signs which indicate that an able child may be under-achieving. In addition, they provide tools that will help teachers to understand and assist able children in their care. The book may also be of interest to academics working in this field.
