NAPLAN 2016

The National Assessment Program – Literacy and Numeracy (NAPLAN) will be completed by students in Years 3, 5, 7 and 9, from Tuesday 10th May through to Thursday 12th May. Friday 13 May – A ‘catch-up' day is scheduled for students who missed a test or were absent on a test day.

In the Numeracy tests students do not require any measuring tools such as rulers or protractors. In Years 7 and 9 there will be two Numeracy tests: one where a calculator is allowed and one where calculators are not to be used. For the calculator test, the student should use the calculator that they currently use at school.
