Abstract
This short piece from the Forum archive introduces Caroline Benn’s detailed critique of ‘The myth of giftedness’. Her starting point is the need to define and then demand comprehensive education as a basic educational right, set alongside a mapping of the modern giftedness movement in the 1960s and 1970s.
