High potential and gifted education
All students require access to learning programs that meet their learning needs and support to aspire to, and achieve, personal excellence. Our commitment to high expectations for all students includes high potential and gifted students.
At Tuggerah Public School, we support every student to achieve their educational potential, regardless of background, through the provision of explicit teaching strategies and quality teaching in a supportive learning environment. We aim to optimise the growth and achievement of high potential and gifted students across all domains of potential including Intellectual, Social-Emotional, Creative and Physical domains.
