Welcome to Exceptional Children. We are a psychological consultancy specialising in children who have special learning needs.  Dr Gail Byrne is our principal psychologist and is also a teacher and Coordinator of Individual Differences. For the past nine years, she has served as Chairperson of the CHIP (Children of High Intellectual Potential) Foundation. She has many years experience working with children who may not be experiencing success in the classroom for any number of reasons.

Gail has coordinated Special Education Departments and Gifted Programs in a number of schools and is particularly skilled at understanding the ramifications of an assessment and explaining to teachers and parents how best to work with the child in the classroom and at home.

Gail has completed doctoral studies in the underachievement of gifted children whilst her Masters in Education concentrated on curriculum differentiation and meeting children’s needs in the classroom.

Exceptional Children offers a range of services for children, parents and schools.  We hope we can assist you with your needs.
