Welcome Teachers
Empowering Gifted Learners in Your Classroom
​
Gifted children possess extraordinary potential and deserve an educational experience that ignites their intellectual curiosity and fosters their unique talents.
At GTCASA, we understand the nuances of giftedness and are committed to supporting both these exceptional students and the dedicated teachers who guide them.
​
Do you have gifted learners in your classroom who would thrive in an environment that celebrates their abilities?
Our engaging Saturday Club enrichment programs offer a vibrant space where gifted children connect with like-minded peers, explore their passions in areas like mathematics, chess, creative arts, science, music, and beyond, and feel a profound sense of belonging.
By referring your gifted students and their families to our Saturday Club, you provide them with invaluable opportunities for growth and fulfillment outside of the regular school curriculum.
​
Furthermore, GTCASA is deeply invested in equipping educators with the knowledge and skills necessary to effectively nurture gifted students within their classrooms.
We offer a range of Professional Development opportunities designed to enhance your understanding of the specific learning needs, social-emotional considerations, and identification strategies related to giftedness. By partnering with GTCASA for professional learning, your school can ensure that all teachers are empowered to create inclusive and challenging learning environments where every gifted child can flourish.
​
Let's work together to ensure that gifted children receive the fulfilling and enriching education they deserve.
Connect with GTCASA to explore how our Saturday Club and Professional Development programs can be valuable resources for your gifted students and your school community.
How GTCASA supports teachers
At GTCASA, we're dedicated to providing academic enrichment and social opportunities for gifted children.
​
Professional Development
GTCASA is committed to assisting and empowering teachers, to better understand and manage the needs of gifted children within their classes!
We hold regular professional development sessions, or can facilitate tailored training for schools. Send us an enquiry if you are keen to grow your understanding of this space, or would like any further information.
​
Academic Support
Our Saturday Club provides academic enrichment opportunities for gifted children to explore topics of interest with like-minded peers. If you have children in class that may benefit from this enrichment, then send them our way!
​
Community Engagement
We understand the importance of social interaction and peer engagement for gifted students. That's why we organise regular community events, such as our Saturday Club, where students can connect with like-minded peers, participate in enriching activities, and build lasting friendships.
​
Twice Exceptional (2E) Support
Our events assume students who are twice exceptional, possessing exceptional abilities alongside learning differences or disabilities, will be attending and we support whatever you need to attend and have fun.
Whether you're seeking academic enrichment, social connections, or support for 2E identification, GTCASA is here to help gifted students thrive in every aspect of their development. Join us on this journey of discovery, growth, and celebration of giftedness!
Gifted Awareness Week
The theme of Gifted Awareness Week 2025, 'Policy to Practice' was designed to encourage schools to gain familiarity with their school, jurisdiction and AAEGT gifted policy, to implement policy within schools, to professionally develop their teachers, and to build greater awareness of the academic and wellbeing needs of gifted students, and how to successfully support them. The AAEGT has developed policy recommendations to assist schools in implementing their own policy and taking it into day-to-day practice within classrooms.
