Educational Identification

For many gifted children and their parents, schooling can be a confusing, difficult and sometimes lonely journey. How’s that even possible? Surely the name says it all, it’s a ‘gift’. But the perception of ‘giftedness’ and the reality can be vastly different.

Latest Episodes

Why are the number of girls tested for giftedness consistently half the number of boys? And when daughters are identified, Mum says “She didn’t get it from me.”

Leading gifted psychologist Fiona Smith explains why signs of giftedness in girls are often mistaken for ‘hard work’ rather than high IQ and discusses the ideal age for testing before these girls start masking their intelligence.

Despite decades of evidence to the contrary, the myth that boys are naturally better than girls at maths persists, contributing to a gender gap that emerges within the first four months of schooling.

In this final episode, we hear from a Mum who explains how perfectionism can derail high-IQ students. Additionally, practical strategies for parents to support reading, writing, and math at home to improve outcomes are outlined.

Gifted Myth Gender Bias: She’s just an ‘overachiever’
Q: When you're testing gifted girls, is there a different approach to the way you test them?
Yes, gifted girls are very different to test, particularly after they turn nine. Before that, they haven't started to hide their giftedness as much, which makes it easier to assess them.
Gifted Myth Gender Bias: She’s just an ‘overachiever’
Q: How important is that early identification through testing for their education and for their schooling?
It's really important, but it's tricky. The IQ assessment isn't really related to the curriculum, but understanding that a child who's not achieving well in a class is actually capable of achieving at a much higher level is crucial.
