PAT testing

Over the next month, our Year 7-10 students will complete their PAT testing. This is a 40 minute adaptive test designed to measure growth over the past 12 months, as well as identify the need for any additional support. Students will need their ipad/laptop to be charged and connected to our school internet to complete the testing – please check in with the IT team before school or at recess if required.
