Just to clarify, I have done as much research as possible without contacting the school. They do mention they try to cater to gifted kids within the class environment through differentiation using teacher aides, they prefer not to use pull out programs, however they will assess each child on their own needs. They generally assess each child after 6 weeks and go from there.

My main concern is that if I start her off on Singapore math and we get so far with that, then school says, well now she needs to do it OUR way if we are going to advance her. Just from reading other peoples stories on here, it seems that if we can avoid any obstacles like that it would be helpful.

In NZ it's a legal requirement for gifted students to be given an appropriate education (although obviously that doesn't mean much really)
