Acceleration is often misunderstood as just 'grade-skipping' and despite overwhelming evidence of its efficacy, teachers and schools continue to be reluctant to consider this strategy as an option for certain highly able students. This workshop will explore the research behind acceleration, the types of acceleration and key strategies to ensure acceleration is implemented appropriately and effectively for the right students, in order for them to experience a challenging learning environment while at school.
