[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What is a self contained classroom? Asking as an upcoming Brent in-bounds family. [/quote] My understanding is that it’s a special ed classroom for kids who can’t be in a mainstream classroom. I’ve never seen it used in the gifted context like PP does above. But agree with the PP’s premise. More than 1/3 of last year’s Brent 4th got 5s on the math cape. You can’t expect all those parents to be totally fine with their kids being kids being thrown into classes where 90% of the kids are not at grade level. The school would need to lead with differentiation to attract many Brent families. [/quote]
