Gifted and Underachievement

Doesn’t gifted mean high achieving, highly motivated, and highly successful? It could, but more often than one would like, gifted children underachieve according to current research and teachers observation.

Many factors get in the way of learning and achievement. Through interactive discussion and a sharing of the research, we will explore these factors and discuss strategies parents can try to support their child to be more successful at school and beyond.
