„Research suggests that high-performing students contribute disproportionately to countries’ innovation and economic growth. It is therefore assumed that the societal reward for supporting gifted children to reach their full potential could be particularly significant. Gifted students are regarded as innovators and creators of knowledge who, through the appropriate environment and development, will be able to develop solutions to challenges anticipated in the future.“
