Gifted children may start to tackle existential questions much earlier than their peers… and they may not yet know how to emotionally handle these thoughts. Remind your kids that it’s okay to talk about what scares or saddens them!

Any suggestions from @PPUK_ families? #SEND includes #DME young people - high learning potential with SEND
We have now had an invite to the DfE SEND review, but for those who haven't (or wouldn't be able to attend a meeting in London even if they were invited), any suggestions on accessible ways for as many families as possible to contribute to the process? #send #SENDCrisis #TeamSEND

Depression is common among the gifted. It may feel as though no one can help or even understand, but you are not alone. Proper social and emotional supports for the gifted are critical.
