In many cases, resource provision will determine how well a school meets the ICT needs of gifted pupils. Many schools will need to make significant changes to the way they acquire and maintain resources. The New Opportunities Fund Training Initiative in ICT for Teachers and the National Grid for Learning have raised awareness of the important contribution that ICT can make to teaching and learning. It is hoped that, through the infrastructure of the National Grid, the increasing ability of teachers to use ICT effectively in their teaching and the growing awareness of how the needs of gifted pupils can be met in mainstream education, resources for gifted pupils will become accessible to all teachers and they will be encouraged to share their ideas.
