This qualitative study explores the beliefs and perceptions of ten special education teachers participating in a School Integration Program (PIE) at a school located on Chiloé Island, in the Los Lagos Region of Chile. The participants highlight the challenges and barriers within the educational community that hinder the effective support of gifted students. Through content analysis, the study identifies a range of beliefs and systemic obstacles, including a limited understanding of giftedness stemming from inadequate teacher training, insufficient resources, and a lack of flexibility within a highly standardized educational system. The findings underscore the need for a coordinated and systematic effort across the entire school system to ensure broader impact and to provide meaningful opportunities for the recognition and development of students with outstanding talents.
