Hi dagong99

Already emailed to you on 22 Nov. Please check your mailbox. Thanks

Yes, received with thanks ![/quote]

I went to the library, so many of them either on loan or in other libraries or not available at all. Must they read all in the ERP list ? Is there a book review that they must do as part of their programme based on this list ? Any other place that I can find except the library ?

If the book in other libraries, you can make a reservation with a fee & you can collect the book from your designated library.
No, don't have to read all the books on the list. If you prefer to purchase the books, you can go kinokuniya to buy. They have special racks for gifted reader.

Thanks, MandyMummy!

In that case for a school with 2 classes of GEP & 50 students, the top 10% is only 5 students & top 25% is 13 round to nearest whole number. That's really tough!
Any idea what is good progress award?
