Latest News
REACH Online course doubles enrolments! 2010 has seen twice the number of educators taking part in this comprehensive highly practical course, including both New Zealand and overseas teachers. The 2008 Report by New Zealand's Education Review Office on provision for gifted children echoed international findings emphasising the need for quality professional development in this field, and here at REACH we're delighted that these increasing numbers seem to indicate this course is doing exactly that.
Because we're regularly asked to provide workshops and seminars for both educators and parents, we're adding a new page, "Workshops", to this site to help you see what's available and what might be helpful for your school or parent group or for you as an individual.
