NAPLAN 2026Each year, students in Years 3, 5, 7 and 9 participate in the National Assessment Programme – Literacy and Numeracy (NAPLAN). The results are used to measure individual students and student cohorts, educational outcomes in literacy (reading, writing, spelling, grammar and punctuation) and numeracy. The assessments will be conducted across two weeks this year from 11 to 23 March with opportunity for catch up of missed tests.
