Gifted assessments evaluate whether a child demonstrates exceptionally high intellectual abilities that may require enriched or accelerated educational programming. Programs and schools such as Westmount Charter School require an assessment to determine if the student qualifies.

These assessments examine areas such as:

• Verbal reasoning
• Nonverbal and visual reasoning
• Problem solving and abstract thinking

Gifted assessments are often requested for:

• School enrichment or gifted programming
• Understanding a child’s advanced learning needs
• Identifying twice-exceptional students (gifted students who may also have learning or attention challenges)

Results provide families and schools with a detailed understanding of a child’s intellectual strengths and recommendations for supporting advanced learning.
