Dutch term or phrase: Begaafdheidsprofielscholen
My translation: schools with a profile for talented and gifted pupils. Suggestions?

Begaafdheidsprofielscholen: scholen waar extra opvang voor hoogbegaafde leerlingen structureel geregeld wordt en als zodanig herkenbaar worden. De inrichting van dit type scholen is nog in een groeifase. De benaming is naar analogie van de zogenaamde cultuurprofielscholen en LOOT-scholen (Landelijk Overleg Onderwijs en Topsport).

Thanks for your response.
