NAPLAN
NAPLAN National Assessment Program
We congratulate our students, teachers, and instructional leaders on their outstanding 2024 NAPLAN results.
Even better than 2023! 
The NAPLAN reports were sent home to families last week. Once again the school is performing well above neighbouring schools, and the State. It is excellent to see that the majority of our students perform in either the ‘exceeding’ or ‘strong’ categories. The school’s 2024 AIP targets this year have been surpassed with these results.
I would like to thank our dedicated staff and families for their commitment to ensuring our students optimise every learning opportunity.
Please note that NAPLAN is just a snapshot and is one test on one particular day. It does not always provide an overall picture of every student’s academic ability.

NAPLAN 2025 test window12 – 24 March
Students in Years 3 and 5 at Glen Huntly Primary School will be participating in four tests on four separate days covering:
Writing
Reading
Conventions of Language
Numeracy
As soon as we are able to confirm the actual dates of these tests to be held at Glen Huntly Primary School, this will be posted on our school website and with relevant Compass notifications.
If you are the parent of a student in Years 3 or 5, you will receive an individual report in August. These tests in key areas of literacy and numeracy provide parents and educators with a snapshot of how students are progressing- individually, as part of our school community and nationally. The national standards are those that have been agreed upon by all state and territory governments.
At GHPS we will be using the results to celebrate success, inform our planning and address areas requiring improvement by incorporating future goals into student’s Individual Learning Improvement Plans and across the school.
Your child’s teacher or the school principal should be your first point of contact for any concerns you might have about your child’s results. Further information and analysis about whole school achievement will be reported to the community at School Council and in the coming newsletters.
In brief:
- NAPLAN results are out and the school again outperformed against overall state results. Whilst this already reflects strongly on the school, the aim remains for all staff to continually improve student outcomes in Numeracy and Literacy.
