[senco-forum] gifted and talented

How do you all identify potential gifted and talented students?  Would
you need high CAT scores across all 3 reasoning levels or would two be
enough.  And how high is high enough?  130+?  Do you put them on a
register?  Our intake is 11, 13 and 16yrs with the main one being 13
yrs.   Having identified them what do you do then?  We are only 400
strong, non-selective, with plenty of dyslexics etc but with some bright
boys at the top end of the scale.  At the moment I think we just make
them do more GCSEs!   Any ideas welcome.
