Gifted & Talented

Vision and Mission

At Sandwich Technology School we wish to nurture and develop all pupils and to provide an environment rich in opportunities for learning and for the development of individual gifts and talents.

We aim to inspire our pupils to be global citizens prepared for the exciting opportunities and challenges of today’s world. They will be encouraged to develop thinking skills that can be applied across disciplines, to learn languages which will allow them to communicate with confidence, and to develop the skills of leadership, collaboration and self-knowledge essential for happiness and personal fulfilment.

Each pupil at Sandwich Technology School is unique and our programmes are designed to support the developing needs of our pupils. The Gifted and Talented programmes are created to ensure the very best success for those pupils identified as having a particular gift or talent but are also open to all pupils who wish to aim high and achieve the very best in their academic and personal development.

Our partnerships within Barton Court Academy Trust will allow us to share ideas, resources and best practice to ensure all pupils have access to opportunities to stretch and challenge in all subjects to encourage academic excellence and individual talent.
