Pupils from a less advantaged background, such as low economic, social and cultural status or a native language other than Dutch, do not always fulfil their potential in terms of academic success. The project “Creating equal opportunities at school (CEOS): Empowering pupils from lessadvantaged backgrounds through teaching academic language”, financed by Erasmus+, contributes to bridging the gap between these pupils’ current academic success and their cognitive talent through identifying cognitive talent and teaching Dutch academic language. This research report discusses the research findings from the CEOS- project. This EU cofunded project had two research questions: How can we identify cognitive talent among students from disadvantaged backgrounds? And: How can we develop an academic language program that improves their opportunities to be successful in the higher levels education?
