Abstract

The article is based on the research of European policies in the development and support of gifted and talented education seekers. It is dedicated to understanding the differences and deficiencies in Ukrainian gifted education and identifying directions for its modernization. The article explores the experience of European countries, analyzes the activities of critical organizations and decisions made by governments and the Council of Europe, and examines the main supports for giftedness. A concise analysis and role of documents containing recommendations for supporting gifted and talented education seekers are provided, namely: «Recommendation 1248 (1994) Education for gifted children», “Budapest Declaration on Talent Support Conclusions of the Hungarian EU Presidential Conference on Talent Support”, “Specific Educational Measures to Promote all Forms of Giftedness at School in Europe”. The authors note that issues in the legislative, theoretical, and practical fields in both European countries and Ukraine require further resolution. These include, among others, the non­recognition of highly gifted students as individuals with special needs, terminological inconsistency, limited connections between experts from Europe and Ukraine in this field of knowledge, and insufficient study of each other's approaches. Nevertheless, most developed countries have made significant progress in implementing talent preservation policies, namely the recognition of the uniqueness of the gifted, the establishment of particular approaches at the legislative level, such as acceleration and differentiation of education, the introduction of teacher training programs in this field of knowledge, and the conduct of psychological and pedagogical research. Based on the studied experience, the authors attempt to outline ways to improve education in the field of giftedness in Ukraine. The authors plan to continue exploring the experience of education for the gifted in individual countries of the European Union, particularly in Germanspeaking countries.
