This study is about the above-average pupils’ situation in schools and how teachers work to encourage and motivate these pupils' development in mathematics. The purpose of this study is to find out how a group of teachers work with above-average pupils in mathematics. The study addresses previous research on these students' school situation and how teachers should work with them. There have been unstructured interviews with a number of educators to get a personal insight into how they work with above-average pupils. The results show that the teachers who participated in the study found stimulation of the above-average pupils important but they think it is difficult to get sufficient time to fully be able to satisfy these pupils. It has also shown that teachers believe that pupils with difficulties first of all should get help from special education teachers. They conclusions that I have made is that the above-average pupils development and stimulation is vitally important, but that they too often falls through the net and we let them work on on their own. I believe that more attention should be on the above-average pupils and that we can use their knowledge in the classrooms.
