Step 2: School Counselor's evaluation and confirmation of referral cases of ‘gifted and talented’. Evaluations would be done based on internationally recognized and standardized tests and adapted methodologies.

  7. Features: Step 3: Development of identification benchmarks for achievement and leveled enrichment program to accommodate and develop identified skill sets and talent areas. Participating Schools can appoint a core teacher/expert team for such a purpose. Such a team would also aid the sharing of best practices and innovative ‘what works’ ideas. At GEMS OOIS, House Masters and House Mistresses have been deployed for identification in Extracurricular Skill sets and Subject teachers have been deployed for Academic Skills.
