Newlands College offers its gifted and talented students a rich and challenging programme with a range of extension activities. Students are identified by a range of methods including referral by staff, parents and the students themselves. Students are offered the opportunity to be challenged in a wide variety of activities and competitions such as ICAS Assessments, Mathswell, Model United Nations, and many more. The activities organised by the  teacher in charge of the Gifted and Talented programme change yearly based on students interests. This teacher also provides additional support and mentoring for our gifted and talented students who benefit from extension opportunities and pathway support.
