NAPLAN

The annual NAPLAN tests assess Years 3, 5, 7 and 9 students' skills in reading, writing, conventions of language (spelling, grammar and punctuation) and numeracy. NAPLAN results for a selected school can be compared to the average results of a group of schools with similar students, and to the average results of all Australian schools. 

There are different ways to visualise NAPLAN data on My School. You can view data as numbers, bands or in graph form. You can also view student gain over time and compare achievement with schools with similar ICSEA values.
