Abstract
The National Association for Gifted Children has published a study of Initial and In-service Teacher Training in England, Scotland and Wales, in their special area, during the Academic Year 1981–82. Entitled “Teaching Able and Gifted Children”, the study was compiled by Frank Sherwood, the Association's Education Officer.
