What extension is offered for gifted and talented students?
Medowie Christian School recognises that every child has unique strengths and weaknesses. All students are assessed as part of the enrolment process which, alongside other reports (eg. school reports), may identify areas where they would need extension. The interview panel will discuss with you the various ways in which your child can work either independently, as part of an extension group or at home with alternative work. Teaching programs are modified as neccessary to provide opportunities for students to engage in suitable learning experiences which help them work to their potential. Generally, we encourage students to remain in the same class as their peers, rather than accelerating into a higher grade. However, this decision is made on an individual basis.
