CHECK IN ASSESSMENT:
The Check-in Assessment includes two online assessments for students:
- Reading Assessment
- Numeracy Assessment
Each assessment is designed to be quick and easy to administer, consisting of approximately 40 multiple choice questions.
The Check-in Assessment supplements existing school practices to identify how students are performing in literacy and numeracy and to help teachers tailor their teaching more specifically to student needs.
The assessment will take place for students in Year 4 and 6 on Monday 26 April 2021 and Tuesday 27 April 2021, Term 2 Week 2 2021.
If you would like your child to be exempt from this assessment please contact the school as soon as possible.
NAPLAN
NAPLAN is a point-in-time assessment that allows parents to see how their child is progressing in literacy and numeracy against the national standard and compared with their peers throughout Australia. At the classroom level, NAPLAN provides additional information to support teachers’ professional judgement about student progress.
Federal, state and territory education ministers agreed to gradually transition NAPLAN online by 2022. NAPLAN Online is a tailored test that adapts to student responses, providing better assessment and more precise results.
NAPLAN is only for Year 3 and 5. This year it will be held over four days in Term 2 Week 4 on Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday mornings between 9-11am.
All tests will be online, except for Year 3 writing which will be on paper.
Year 3 and 5 students will have access to online practice tests and more information will be sent home soon.
If you have any questions please contact your classroom teacher. If you would like your child to be exempt from this assessment please contact the school as soon as possible.
This year Adam Rumsey and Lyndsey Caldecott will be administering the NAPLAN and Check-In assessments for all students from years 3-6.
Please see below the timetables for the assessments.
