The G.A.T.E.WAYS Horizons Program is 4x online lessons over 4 weeks designed for a ‘deep dive’ into a particular topic or subject area. Highly able students from Years 3/4 and 5/6 have the opportunity to participate during school time in 1hr live, interactive and engaging online workshops, eliminating the additional costs and logistics of face-to-face presentations.

 

The G.A.T.E.WAYS Horizons Program offers schools and teachers an online way to support their high-ability students:

•  Developed by our team of gifted education specialists and presenters who are practicing experts in their fields – who come to you virtually.

•  Supports schools through providing programs and subject expertise where distance, experience or teacher access is potentially limited.

• Provides genuine challenges for your high-ability students through high quality, enriching workshops.
