Australian curriculum falls short for gifted students, and many teachers are not able to confidently improvise solutions. Research has painted a poor picture of education for Australian students from lower socioeconomic backgrounds, as well as from provincial and remote regions. In 2017, the Australian government commissioned an Independent Review into Regional, Rural, and Remote Education (IRRRRE) to try and improve the education of students in rural areas. The initial focus was to fund studies on the needs of these students, who often are of an indigenous background, a historically underserved population. This year, IRRRRE is further focused on providing information pathways beyond school for regional, rural, and remote students. This paper provides advice on offering gifted education in rural, remote, and low socioeconomic areas. It discusses how to extend and accelerate students through a new program, Self-Select, which is designed to bridge the gap in gifted education in Australia. Self-Select is successful because it fosters learning and risk-taking and addresses the educational environment and students' interpersonal characteristics.
