This document presents the proposed features a pilot project titled Early identification of high potential and gifted Aboriginal students. This project is designed to respond to the findings of the Review of Selective Education Access (2018). It seeks to implement processes for the early identification of Aboriginal students who exhibit high potential or giftedness in the intellectual domain. These students are to be provided frontloading experiences aimed at preparing them for success in New South Wales (NSW) selective education settings (Opportunity Classes and Selective High Schools). This scoping document provides a literature review focused on Project Excite, a United States based frontloading program, and also explores programs that have reported success in supporting gifted Australian Aboriginal students. It also makes recommendations as to the form an Australian frontloading program could take. This includes consideration of project goals, the composition of the project team, identification measures, culturally relevant supplementary learning activities, wrap-around supports, community engagement, and evaluation.
