PEAC
The Primary Extension and Challenge (PEAC) program offers a range of courses that provide opportunities for extension and enrichment work that is intellectually challenging for gifted and talented students in Years 5 and 6.
All students across the state in government schools, who are in Year 4 have the opportunity to be assessed for suitability for the PEAC program. the testing for PEAC takes place at school during Term Three. Your child's actual test results will remain confidential, the school will only be told who is and who isn't eligible for the program.
Notification of the success in gaining a placement into the PEAC program is provided to the school and then sent to parents later in Term 4.
Students who are performing well at school are possible candidates for the program. There are some students in Year 4 who's potential is not so easily recognised. There may be students who are underachieving at school and there are some students who demonstrate certain skills and abilities more at home than at school.
