NAPLAN Results

We congratulate all our Grade 3 and 5 students who participated in the NAPLAN assessments earlier this year. Our Teaching and Learning Team have now received all data and spent time unpacking the 2025 NAPLAN reports. There is a lot to celebrate, and we are excited to share the following highlights with our school community. 

GRADE 3

  • NUMERACY- 63% of students Strong or Exceeding, which is higher than similar and network schools, and approaching the 66% state benchmark. 
  • READING- 68% of students Strong or Exceeding, which is higher than similar and network schools and almost at the 69% state benchmark.

GRADE 5

 

Grammar and Punctuation continue to be a focus across the school and PLCs have been focusing on this area in their literacy planning to ensure they are explicitly teaching students these skills. 

 

Reflecting on the targets from our 2025 Annual Implementation Plan (AIP), we have been successful in increasing the number of students working in the Strong and Exceeding proficiencies and decreased or maintained the number of students needing additional support. This is exciting data to share as it is a celebration of the hard work that happens in classrooms every single day.
