Highlights from past HAGT conferences
HAGT Challenge for All Summit 2026
Across two dynamic days, the Challenge for All Summit 2026 brought together principals, coordinators, administrators, student support educators, counselors, and teachers from across regions, united in their commitment to strengthening services for highly able learners.
Through engaging sessions led by leaders in the field, participants explored research informed strategies, real world practices, and school wide approaches across areas such as identification, differentiation, talent development, twice exceptional learners, AI literacy, resilience, and pathway design. Each session emphasised application, supporting teams in translating ideas into actionable plans within their own contexts. The Summit also marked the launch of the EmpowerEd Strand for Learning Support and Teaching Assistants, further strengthening inclusive practice. Participants left with deeper insight, practical tools, and clear next steps to continue building stronger systems and learning environments where highly able students can truly thrive.
HAGT Elevate Math Symposium 2025
The HAGT LatAm Conference is a regional online gathering dedicated to supporting highly able learners across Latin America. This full day conference, offered in both Spanish and English, brought together educators, school leaders, and specialists committed to equity, excellence, and inclusion in education. Grounded in the belief that highly able learners exist in every country, language, and classroom, the conference created space to explore how these learners can be better recognized and supported.
Sessions highlighted inclusive identification practices, twice exceptionality, social emotional needs, and practical strategies that schools can apply to build stronger and more sustainable systems of support. The conference was designed for teachers, learning support specialists, counselors, administrators, and educational leaders across the region.
The Elevate Math Symposium is a virtual event designed for educators who want to better support advanced mathematicians within mixed ability classrooms. Through engaging workshops, expert presentations, and collaborative discussions, the symposium explored practical strategies for differentiating instruction, making advanced mathematics accessible, and creating inclusive learning environments where highly able students can thrive.
Participants left with actionable tools they could implement immediately, from curriculum compacting and open-ended problem design to tiered task frameworks and strategies for fostering mathematical thinking at deeper levels of complexity. Whether they were classroom teachers, instructional coaches, or curriculum coordinators, the symposium offered insights relevant across grade levels and school contexts.
