More Able and Talented Pupils

We recognise in Fairfield that there are children who have additional learning needs. These additional learning needs may be as a result of particular abilities or talents. Through our policy for “More Able and Talented” children, we strive to support in every way possible the children who are recognised as having special abilities.

These abilities may be right across the curriculum or they may be in specific subjects. Alternatively, a child may be an especially talented musician or sportsperson and the school may be able to support them by providing a platform for them to display their talents.

We work with parents to identify any special talents or abilities that may not be immediately apparent in school so that we get as complete a picture of each child as possible.
