Abstract
It is the purpose of this paper to identify some of the pertinent issues involved in evaluating gifted programmes. To be more effective, the context of this paper will be set in the gifted programme delivered by the Peel District Board of Education in Ontario, Canada. Peel is Canada's largest public school board with some 110,000 students. A prospective evaluator of such a programme would have to know how well their method is working and in light of the evaluation, look at other programme options as a point of interest. However, it is not the intent of this paper to be an evaluation of the aforementioned programme. It is at best an outline of the thought process an evaluator would undertake prior to planning an evaluation of the programme.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
