Gifted and Talented - Essential Parent Checklist
Montessori-Inspired Learning Focus where Public Education Moves to a Self-Guided Project Based Model of Excellence.
Part of
Education
Rather than defining ability only through grades, test scores or compliant behaviour, the book explores how potential can also appear in students who withdraw, resist, question, struggle or fail to fit traditional expectations.
Drawing on classroom experience, international research and Montessori-inspired approaches, it examines how educators and parents can recognise ability in twice-exceptional, neurodivergent and often overlooked learners. The book explores identification, classroom practice, emotional wellbeing, belonging, teacher training and the relationship between home and school. It also introduces practical frameworks, including the DMGT model, developmental approaches to potential, and checklists for parents and teachers.
With examples from education systems including Australia, Finland and Singapore, Reframing Potential in Modern Education encourages a shift away from sorting students by narrow measures and toward creating learning environments that recognise curiosity, agency, individuality and growth.
For teachers, parents and education professionals, this book offers practical insight into how hidden potential can be noticed, understood and given the opportunity to develop.
