NAPLAN results

NAPLAN (National Assessment Program – Literacy and Numeracy) is an annual assessment for all students in Years 3, 5, 7 and 9 in Australia. The tests cover skills in reading, writing, spelling, grammar and punctuation, and numeracy. The assessments are done every year in May.

As with VCE results, NAPLAN results provide the school with an annual snapshot of cohort achievement, trend data and of the learning progress of individuals. We use this data to inform curriculum planning and target instruction.

Over the last five years, our Year 7 and Year 9 groups have achieved results above the state and national averages in all NAPLAN test areas (Numeracy, Reading, Writing, Spelling, Grammar and Punctuation).

This consistently high performance continued in 2022 with our results:

  • Well above the Australian average
  • Well above the Victorian average
  • At consistently the same level for demographically similar schools.

Of particular note in 2022:

  • High level of relative growth for our Year 9 students from Year 7 across the test areas of Reading, Writing and Numeracy. .

These results show progression well above national averages and comparable to, or better than, similar schools. The results are a significant endorsement of the excellent performance of our students and their teachers.
