Gifted Issues Discussion homepage Forums Parenting and Advocacy How and when to advocate at school?

I tend to agree that if your child is HG plus more of the same May not cut it. That being said there is more to math than spatial abilities. From what I understand working memory is the most important factor through algebra and then it is a combination of spatial skills and executive functioning (inhibition, mental flexibility etc). I guess my point is I would be cautious about saying A always equals B. Children are generally much more complicated than that. If the school is not willing to be flexible about curriculum and will not consider grade acceleration or at least subject acceleration I would find a school that is. Best of luck with your decision:)!
