Is selective education the right fit for my child?

Is selective education the right fit for my child?

High potential and gifted students can be found across diverse family, socio-economic, language, cultural backgrounds and geographic locations.

Your child may have high academic potential if they demonstrate some of the following:

·         enjoy learning

·         have intense curiosity

·         display a good memory

·         ask complex questions

·         enjoy learning new and often complex ideas or skills

·         require fewer repetitions when learning new things

·         are creative

·         become intensely focused in their area/s of interest.

Note: Not all high potential and gifted students will display all of these characteristics, for example, due to disability, disadvantage or lack of opportunity.
