High potential and gifted education
Some students learn faster and more easily than others. These students may shine in creativity, thinking, leadership or sport.
At our school, our teachers are dedicated to identifying students' high potential through the use of objective, valid, and reliable measures within formative assessments. This approach supports and guides teaching and learning across creative, intellectual, physical, and social-emotional domains.
They actively assess and pinpoint the individual learning needs of all high potential, gifted, and highly gifted students, ensuring that each student receives customised programs and support tailored to their unique requirements.
Our planning is grounded in the belief that teachers must maintain high expectations for every student, recognising the need for differentiated, evidence-based learning opportunities that maximise growth and achievement.
We work collaboratively with families, the school community, and the broader community while engaging in continuous professional development. This commitment strengthens teacher capability and enhances growth and achievement for all high potential and gifted students. Through these efforts, our teachers strive to be the driving force behind high performance and talent development for every learner.
