The Opportunity Class is a district gifted and talented class, (known as an OC class) which boasts the largest number of state identified gifted and talented students in the Clarence Valley
SGPS is the only school in the Clarence Valley and one of only 75 primary schools across NSW to offer an opportunity classfor high-achieving, academically-gifted students in Years 5 and 6.
An opportunity class provides intellectual stimulation by grouping together gifted and talented students who may otherwise be isolated from a suitable peer group.
To be considered for enrolment, students must sit the opportunity class placement test in Year 4. The test is held between late July and early August and application packages must be made in May.
Students are offered a range of extension programs including technology, extra curriculum opportunities and inter-school science initiatives. Students undertake contract work which develops self-directed interests, facilitating inquiry-based learning. Open-ended problem-solving techniques are used to highlight current Global issues.
