Our school will be transitioning to NAPLAN Online this year. This means our students in years 3 and 5 will complete the NAPLAN assessments online this year rather than pencil and paper.
The Year 3 writing test will continue to be paper-based, but all other Year 3 NAPLAN tests will be online. Our school has participated in a series of activities to prepare for the transition to NAPLAN Online. These preparation activities confirmed that our school is ready to transition to NAPLAN Online in 2019.
Our teachers and students will be involved in preparation and practice activities in the lead up to NAPLAN this year. This will include participation in a practice test during March, where students will have a further opportunity to become familiar with the online platform and the type of questions they will be asked in NAPLAN Online.
More information about NAPLAN Online, including the latest fact sheet for parents and carers, can be found on the NSW Department of Education’s NAPLAN Online website: education.nsw.gov.au/teaching-andlearning/student-assessment/naplanonline/getting-ready/parent-information
