Gifted Children: The School Situation

Last year the Hamilton branch of the New Zealand Association for Gifted Children produced a radio programme, broadcast by 1YW Hamilton, on the gifted child and the school situation. The participants included a psychologist, a teacher, a community advisory officer (CAD), the mother of David, a gifted child, and Robert, a grown-up gifted child. A transcript of this programme was published in Gifted Children. Their Future -Our Challenge, magazine of the N.Z.A.G.C., April 1978, pp. 2-7. This transcript is reprinted in set with slight amendments and with the permission of the New Zealand Association for Gifted Children.
