High Potential and Gifted Education

Bonnyrigg High School is a partially selective high school, offering two Selective classes from grades 7 to 10. In the senior years, our selective students follow NESA - mandated curriculum that integrates them with mainstream students, ensuring a cohesive learning environment. Each teacher of our selective classes has completed training around the High Potential and Gifted education policy by the Department of Education 

All Key Learning Areas (KLAs) have incorporated specific strategies and initiatives for acceleration and advancement into their curricula. This provides our high potential students with ample extension opportunities, ensuring they are continually challenged and engaged.

Beyond these faculty-based programs, the High Potential and Gifted Education Team at Bonnyrigg High School is dedicated to offering additional extra-curricular opportunities for extension, enrichment, and growth.

The core objective of the HPGE Team is to enhance our students' creative abilities, academic rigor, critical thinking, and teamwork skills. By equipping them with these invaluable skills, we prepare our high potential and gifted students to become globally-minded and responsible citizens.

Stages 4, 5, and 6 feature age-specific, uniquely designed strategies to promote the acquisition of these essential skills.
