Gifted.
A label. A memory. A journey — across a lifetime.
If the “gifted” label stayed with you beyond school — in how you lived, achieved, struggled or identified — I’d love to hear your story for my PhD research.

@blueskylearning.bsky.social 📣 Calling for lived experiences of being labelled ‘gifted’ in England—formally or informally.
I’m exploring how neurodiversity, place, emotion, and class shape this experience.
If you work in education, inclusion, or research, I’d love your help spreading the word!

Were you labelled as ‘gifted’—formally or informally—during your school years in England?
How did that label shape how you felt, where you belonged, or who you became?
I’m exploring the emotional and spatial realities behind the idea of giftedness.
Your reflections matter.

If you were once called gifted, what stayed with you: pride, achievement, pressure, confusion, or something else entirely?
I'm researching how people in England make sense of that label over time.
Let’s open up the conversation.
