GATE (Gifted and Talented Education) School is founded by a group of dedicated and highly qualified
teachers who have years of classroom teaching experience and seek a specialized educational
program for English speaking children that have been identified as gifted and talented.
A United States Office of Education definition (Marland, 1982) suggests gifted and talented students
are those "who have outstanding abilities, are capable of high performance and who require
differentiated educational programs (beyond those normally provided by regular school programs)
in order to realize their contribution to self and society".
While we all agree on that, we have been working together to organize programs to help identify,
explore, and develop those children’s unique talents and where these talents are respected and used
as a key resource for academic success.
Our aim is to provide differentiated instructions to meet different needs of highly able students and to
offer a wide range of academic opportunities that not only develop the intellect in depth and complexity
but also nurture social development and leadership abilities by setting a curricular system in which
students can serve as leaders. We believe these talented children have a great potential to take the
lead in the future and make sure our school provides programs designed to promote leadership as
young global leaders by integrating multicultural aspect, history, creative and critical thinking skills,
and collaborative open environment for project centered learning in every lesson.
We further believe that special efforts should be made to ensure all teachers with gifted students in
their classrooms must be trained in meeting the special needs of these students and to provide
varying opportunities to encourage students to use their particular talents and creative abilities to
express their understanding in creative and unique ways.
We will continue to strive to offer unique education opportunities for high-achieving and underachieving
students to meet the various needs of our gifted and talented students.
