It all depends on what “2e” means in your particular child.
There are some disabilities that need more time to work on - will there be enough downtime from schoolwork to do this?
There are social disabilities which may make a child less mature, even if he is intellectually gifted - will this pose a problem relating to GEP kids who are not 2e?

I have a grownup daughter who is not 2e - average intelligence, coupled with ASD and dyspraxia. We found that the need to coach her in physical and social skills took a lot of time and energy, and she really couldn’t spend that much time focused on academic work. But we decided that working on the skills was more important, especially when she was younger. We reckoned that there was no point having her be strong academically but coping badly in daily living and social interactions.
