  • This paper reports on a small scale study carried out in a large Australian school to investigate student perceptions of giftedness, preferred teacher qualities, and ways of providing for gifted students in the school setting. 80 students, aged 12–16 yrs, from grades 8, 9, and 10 participated. 40 students with IQs of 130 and above were identified as gifted, and 40 students with a mean IQ of 106 as nongifted. 76% of Ss said giftedness in sport was most valued. Far less important were academic skills (27%), music (22%), and maths and the arts (both 18%). Both gifted and nongifted Ss believed that students generally feel positive or neutral about special provisions when they are not involved in them (43% were positive and 39% neutral). When asked how they felt personally about special provisions for the gifted, 34% were highly positive and 36% positive (70%), with 23% using neutral ratings. The teacher quality most often important by the total group was that the teacher should "know the subject well." Gifted students chose 3 qualities as particularly important: that the teacher "knows the subject well," "is interested in students," and "doesn't stick to the text all the time."
