Congratulations to NCC

Congratulations to our Secondary school for ranking 26th with an average score of 630.60 in today's 2022 NAPLAN results.

This is an outstanding result for our school as it shows our continued dedication to our student's growth over time.

NAPLAN is occurring in Term 1 this year, which is earlier than in previous years. This is to enable student data to be returned to schools earlier to help support student learning. Testing will occur for students in Grades 3, 5, 7 and 9 from Wednesday 15th March to Wednesday 22nd March. Stay tuned for further details!

About NAPLAN - as outlined by ACARA

NAPLAN (the National Assessment Program – Literacy and Numeracy) is the only national assessment that all Australian children undertake. It provides comparable data about student performance in literacy and numeracy nationally and over time.

NAPLAN tests students in reading, writing, language conventions (spelling, grammar and punctuation) and numeracy.

It is a nationwide measure to see whether or not young Australians are developing the literacy and numeracy skills that provide the critical foundation for other learning, and for their productive and rewarding participation in the community.

The results for each of the five NAPLAN assessment areas (or domains) are reported on a common NAPLAN scale.

Understanding the NAPLAN scale: Rather than a separate scale for each year level tested (3, 5, 7 and 9), the My School website shows a single common scale, which makes it easier to see growth over time. The midpoint of each domain scale is set at 500 NAPLAN score points. The mean score will vary depending on the year level and test domain, and from test year to test year.
