This article aims to identify similarities and difference between gifted quality standards in different countries based on their purposes, structure and contents. A total of 10 standards have been examined. Two countries – England and the US – have updated and published revised standards. The other four – the Netherlands, New Zealand, Saudi Arabia and Wales – have each produced a single edition. All standards were available in the English language, which makes comparison possible. The result found similarities as well as difference between the examined standards. The study suggest, for a universal standards to be achieved, they must allow sufficient scope to meet varying perspectives of experts (practitioners and academics) and circumstances, support divergent interpretation, promote innovation and allow for changes to the paradigm and the wider policy context and priorities over time.
