Choice and Voice is an innovative, research-based program designed specifically for gifted students performing above their same-age peers. Grounded in inquiry-based learning and self-directed project development, this 15-week program empowers students to take ownership of their learning, develop essential skills in time management and organisation, and produce high-quality, meaningful work that leaves a lasting impact.

Backed by educational research on gifted learners, Choice and Voice aligns with best practices in differentiated instruction, project-based learning, and self-regulation theory. Studies show that when gifted students are given autonomy, authentic audiences, and real-world applications, they are more engaged, motivated, and capable of producing exceptional work. This program integrates these principles, fostering creativity, critical thinking, and deep learning.
