We continue our conversation today, in Part 2 of Parents Guide to Gifted Kids' First Years of School Series with Emily. Emily is a mum navigating those big questions with her gifted child who has just started reception (prep).

This two-part episode covers when our gifted kids should start school, where they should go to school, what expectations we should have and much more…

Memorable quote…

"I think at the beginning of the year for us, we did think it was as simple as, do we go to our locally zoned government school, which we could walk to, or a local private school, which we could also walk to. And we thought that it was as simple as that. They were the two choices.

And then suddenly, we were considering relocating and just anything became an option. But you're also, considering logistics and working, how are you supposed to do drop-offs and pickups whilst working and everything else?

It felt like our whole life was kind of thrown up in the air and everything was an option, but then so many options were taken away as well." - Emily
