This paper focuses firstly on the need to rescind the requirement for schools to produce statistics about numbers of gifted learners for a National Register in the UK It explains how a Register of this nature is unsuitable for other countries to adopt: in the UK it is influenced by a near-total dependence upon unreliable in-school teacher nominations for gifted programmes and a general confusion with the way the English conception of gifted and talented should be implemented. In an attempt to balance up current identification priorities, the importance of parental involvement, feedback and co-advocacy with schools for gifted education is discussed. This paper argues that resources should be reallocated to pay for the time required for G&T co-ordinators or specialists to collate structured parental feedback concerning their child’s current strengths or abilities.
