Naplan testing

Well, here it is.

This week sees the arrival of this year's Naplan testing for year 5's.

I don't want to get political but I would remind you that Naplan scores have now been linked directly to school funding, so that students who are absent from the tests this week may miss out on much needed assistance in years to come. This was definitely not a school based decision.

Tests will happen on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday this week, with a one day only catch up for absent students on the Friday. No further catch up days will be allowed.

Good luck to all students, and my message remains the same - DON'T PANIC!
