Xeph, you and TM might want to take a closer look at a Montessori method school; in Montessori children are placed into classrooms that aren't really grouped by age or experience; rather, they blend them so that the older or more experienced students can help out those younger or less knowledgeable than they are. It allows the child to move at a pace they select. Gifted children do very well in Montessori as they are given free reign to explore their talents, and encouraged to learn beyond what is typical. If you think your child is highly self-motivated and interested in their learning, that is certainly the route I would go.
