NAPLAN 2018

The National Assessment Program - Literacy and Numeracy (NAPLAN) assesses the literacy and numeracy skills of students in Years 3, 5, 7 and 9, in schools across Australia.

NAPLAN assesses writing, language conventions, reading and numeracy.

NAPLAN results will help you understand how your child is progressing through school.

Supporting your child

NAPLAN assesses the literacy and numeracy skills your child is already learning in school.

Teachers will ensure students are familiar with test formats prior to NAPLAN tests. The best way to support your child through NAPLAN is to encourage them to do the best they can on the day.

 

Withdrawals and exemptions

You can withdraw your child from NAPLAN tests.

Your child may be exempt from NAPLAN tests if your child has:

  • significant disabilities
  • a language background other than English, has recently arrived from overseas and has been attending school for less than a year.

Contact Mrs Shaw for further information about withdrawals and exemptions.

 

Understanding NAPLAN reports

Your child’s NAPLAN report will show their results in the key areas of reading, writing, language conventions and numeracy.

Reports are produced for all students who participate in NAPLAN, whether paper or online. These will be available about 12 weeks after the test window closes.

Examples of NAPLAN student reports

 

Disability adjustments

Adjustments are available to students with a disability.

Adjustments to testing conditions should reflect the normal support a student receives in classroom assessments.
