Congratulations on Your Child’s Acceptance into PEAC!

Your child’s selection for the Primary Extension and Challenge (PEAC) program is a testament to their exceptional abilities. While PEAC offers wonderful enrichment opportunities for high achievers, it’s essential to ask:

• Is your child’s learning style, emotional needs, or intellectual development beyond the norm?
• Could they be gifted?

High Achievement vs Giftedness

Many children in PEAC excel academically, but giftedness goes beyond grades. Gifted children often:

• Display intellectual intensity and deep emotional sensitivity.
• Require advanced, tailored learning opportunities to meet their needs.
• Face challenges like asynchronous development, perfectionism, or social struggles.

PEAC provides a great platform for enrichment, but Gifted WA helps families support their child’s whole development, recognising the unique qualities of truly gifted learners.
