NAPLAN 2025

Each year the National Assessment Program – Literacy and Numeracy (NAPLAN) is sat by students in Years 3, 5, 7 and 9. Students will participate in tests for writing, reading, conventions of language (spelling, grammar and punctuation) and numeracy.

Testing Schedule

NAPLAN 2025 will take place from Wednesday 12 March to Monday 24 March.

Students in years 7 and 9 will sit the NAPLAN tests following the schedule below:

Wednesday, March 12 – Writing

Thursday, March 13 – Reading

Friday, March 14 – Conventions of Language

Monday, March 17 – Numeracy

NAPLAN is just one part of our College’s learning assessment program. The tests assess literacy and numeracy skills your child is already learning at school, so the best preparation is their everyday classroom learning. Our school will also undertake activities to help students become familiar with the types of questions and tools available in the online tests.

All Year 7 & 9 students must have the NAPLAN lockdown browser installed on their devices. Instructions for downloading were sent directly to students. Please ensure your child has successfully installed the software.
