ASPECTS OF READING, WRITING and NUMERACY TESTING RESULTS
The best indicator of each student’s achievement is the school’s own assessment program, designed to assess the student’s ability in relation to the curriculum taught in our schools. These levels of achievement will continue to form the basis of semester reporting to parents
The following table provides a comparison of the average score of our school compared to the average score for schools in Queensland & indicates the percentage of children who are above the National benchmark in each of the tested areas.
