Talent Beyond Academics
The “Hamdan Talent Scale” is expected to reach more than 15,000 students in UAE public and private schools during the 2026–2027 academic year, up from around 14,000 the previous year. Its aim is to identify abilities that school grades alone may not reveal. The scale covers students in grades 4 to 12 across four stages. It assesses cognitive and academic abilities, motivation, and environmental and educational factors. It takes about 70 minutes to administer and is part of a three-stage process that begins with school nominations and ends with selecting students and placing them in suitable programmes. The centre’s director says the scale aims to ensure fairer opportunities to identify gifted students and to build student profiles and a national database that link identification with support, enrichment and the development of students’ abilities.
