High Potential and Gifted Education at Turramurra High School
Some students learn faster and more easily than others. These students may shine in creative thinking, leadership or sport. At our school, we recognise and nurture these strengths early. We support advanced learners with great lessons and activities to help them grow and thrive.
Our programs support students across a range of activities and target the four domains of high potential and giftedness.
These activities empower students to enrich their learning in their own areas of interest, grow their passions and foster talent development.
At our school, every learner’s potential is our priority and we are committed to developing high potential across all four identified domains: creative, intellectual, physical and social-emotional. This is a broad and inclusive approach to HPGE implementation and will include the following strategies:
- Quality differentiation in all classes to ensure that learning programs and teaching meets the learning needs and support for all students to aspire to and achieve personal excellence.
- Access to a huge range of co-curricular programs and opportunities across all 4 domains – currently totaling 39 separate initiatives. These programs support students across a range of activities and target the four domains of high potential and giftedness. These activities empower students to enrich their learning in their own areas of interest, grow their passions, and foster talent development
- Development of an exciting new initiative that will expose students to a broad range of specialists in various fields of work to inspire motivate and enrich their in-class learning experiences. This will commence in Term 2 with further information to follow.
We are excited to further foster a culture of high expectations and equity in excellence, ensuring every student, regardless of background, has opportunities to develop their potential into talent.
