Abstract

During the summer of 2005, the National Academy for Gifted and Talented Youth
(NAGTY) offered summer schools for its student members at eight universities
throughout England. The host universities – of Warwick, York, Lancaster, Imperial
College London, Christ Church College Canterbury, Durham, Bristol and Leeds –
provided 53 courses, or strands. All of these strands lasted for two weeks, with the
exception of those at the University of Warwick and Christ Church College
Canterbury, which were of three weeks duration. Altogether, 1,000 students, between
the ages of 11 and 16 attended the 2005 summer schools, which was the fourth year
in which NAGTY had offered the experience to its student members.
In this report, the sites are identified only by a code letter – these were randomly
assigned and do not mirror the alphabetical order of the site names. The code key
has been given to NAGTY, in confidence, so that NAGTY may liaise with individual
sites about any site-specific issues, as it sees fit.
