Regional Enhanced Program

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Regional Enhanced Programme is a Canadian educational programme designed for gifted students.

The Peel Board of Education defines gifted students as "children that have an unusually advanced degree of general intellectual ability that requires differentiated learning experiences of a depth and breadth beyond those normally provided in the regular school programme to satisfy the level of educational potential indicated."

The curriculum of an enhanced programme at the middle school level could include special tasks or projects designed to challenge gifted students. At the high school level, the course material is the same but the manner of teaching and/or the assignments given can vary based on the needs of the students.
