NAPLAN RESULTS The National Assessment Programme – Literacy and Numeracy (NAPLAN) tests are conducted in May each year for all students across Australia in Years 3, 5, 7 and 9. All students in the same year level are assessed on the same test items in the assessment domains of Reading, Writing, Language Conventions (Spelling, Grammar and Punctuation) and Numeracy. The ‘National Minimum Standard’ referred to is a benchmark that is set by the national body responsible for administering the tests. 2018 NAPLAN RESULTS – comparison with Australian mean Hale Grammar & Reading Writing Spelling Numeracy Cohort Punctuation Year 3 47 Aust Mean 434 407 418 432 408 Hale Mean 482 431 460 473 477 Difference +48 +24 +42 +41 +69 Year 5 78 Aust Mean 509 465 503 504 494 Hale Mean 567 505 549 544 572 Difference +58 +40 +46 +40 +78 Year 7 201 Aust Mean 542 505 545 544 548 Hale Mean 595 556 581 596 619 Difference +53 +51 +36 +52 +71 Year 9 200 Aust Mean 584 542 583 580 596 Hale Mean 633 606 629 626 674 Difference +49 +64 +46 +46 +78 2018 NAPLAN RESULTS - % measure proportions of students at or above National Minimum Standard Hale Grammar & % Reading Writing Spelling Numeracy Cohort Punctuation Year 3 47 National 96 94 94 94 96 Hale 100 100 98 96 98 Year 5 78 National 95 90 94 93 96 Hale 100 97 100 99 100 Year 7 201 National 94 87 93 92 95 Hale 100 98 99 100 100 Year 9 200 National 93 79 90 91 95 Hale 100 96 97 99 100 11
