Abstract: Though there are many talents identification schemes are running at school level in India, yet it has been realized that the term -talent- needs to be conceptualized more broadly and comprehensively. It is equally important to make clear distinction between Gifted and Talented. Taking note of the issue, Office of the Principal Scientific Adviser to the Government of India initiated an exploratory project to develop indigenous methods to identify gifted children, particularly in Mathematics and Science. The present paper highlights the indigenous methods of identifying gifted children and how their learning needs are met through need based mentoring program.
