  • Intellectually gifted students have the right to appropriately challenging learning experiences and the right to reach their potential; yet little is known about their learning experiences in mixed-ability classes in Australian primary schools from the students’ perspectives. In Australia, where most intellectually gifted students are in mixed-ability classes, teachers are expected to differentiate to meet the specific learning needs of students across the full range of abilities. The aim of this qualitative study was to examine the learning experiences of intellectually gifted students in mixed-ability classes in Western Australian primary schools and consider whether the mixed-ability classrooms were inclusive in terms of meeting their specific learning needs. Twelve students were interviewed from different primary schools, and interview questions focused on their learning experiences and what they would like their teachers to know about these experiences. Three themes were established from analysis: wasted learning opportunities; challenge and support; and learning and working with others. The findings are positioned with reference to the Australian education context and implications and recommendations are presented.
