NAPLAN
NAPLAN 2025: Key Information
Preparation for NAPLAN 2025 is well underway. NAPLAN is a series of assessments for all Year 7 and 9 students across Australia, designed to monitor student progress in literacy and numeracy. It is not a pass-or-fail test but provides valuable insights into student growth, curriculum effectiveness, and the quality of teaching and learning at our College.
This year, NAPLAN will take place in Term 1, from Wednesday 12th March to Monday 24th March 2025.
While participation is expected, parents and carers have the option to withdraw their child from NAPLAN testing for religious, philosophical, or educational reasons. If you are considering withdrawal, please contact the College as soon as possible to discuss the process and complete the necessary paperwork.
For more information, parents and carers can refer to the attached brochure or visit the official NAPLAN website:
