NAPLAN 2026: Your Complete Guide to Australia's National Assessment
Every year, hundreds of thousands of Australian students in Years 3, 5, 7, and 9 sit the National Assessment Program — Literacy and Numeracy, better known as NAPLAN. For many parents, NAPLAN can feel like a source of uncertainty — what exactly does it test, how does the online format work, and what do the results actually mean for your child's education?
Whether your child is approaching their first NAPLAN in Year 3 or sitting it for the third time in Year 9, this guide covers everything you need to know about NAPLAN 2026. We will walk through the test format, the four assessment domains, how the adaptive online platform works, how results are reported, and — perhaps most importantly — how you can support your child without unnecessary stress.
In this guide, you will discover:

What Is NAPLAN?
NAPLAN stands for the National Assessment Program — Literacy and Numeracy. It is an annual assessment administered to all Australian students in Years 3, 5, 7, and 9 across government, Catholic, and independent schools. NAPLAN has been a part of the Australian education landscape since 2008, and since 2023, it has been conducted primarily online using an adaptive testing platform.
The purpose of NAPLAN is straightforward: it provides a national snapshot of how students are performing in fundamental literacy and numeracy skills. It is not designed to rank students against each other or to determine entry into any particular school. Instead, NAPLAN helps parents, teachers, and schools understand where a student sits in relation to national proficiency standards — and, critically, whether any additional support might be needed.
NAPLAN assesses students across four domains:
- Reading — comprehension of written texts
- Writing — the ability to construct a well-organised written response
- Conventions of Language — spelling, grammar, and punctuation
- Numeracy — mathematical reasoning and problem-solving
It is important to understand that NAPLAN is a census assessment, meaning virtually every eligible student participates. It is not an exam students pass or fail. There is no minimum score required and no consequences for individual students based on their results. The data is used at the school, state, and national level to identify trends and allocate resources.
Key Point for Parents
NAPLAN is a diagnostic tool, not a high-stakes exam. It tells you where your child's skills sit relative to national standards. It does not determine school entry, class placement, or academic streaming in the vast majority of Australian schools.
One common misconception is that NAPLAN results are used for selective school entry. This is not the case. Selective school entrance tests — such as the NSW Selective High School Placement Test, the Opportunity Class (OC) test, or the HAST — are entirely separate assessments with different formats, different administering bodies, and different purposes. We will cover this distinction in detail later in this guide.
NAPLAN 2026 Dates and Schedule
Since 2023, NAPLAN has been held in March each year, moved forward from its previous May testing window. This shift was designed to provide results to schools and parents earlier in the school year, giving teachers more time to act on the information while the academic year is still in progress.
NAPLAN 2026 will take place within a 9-day test window in March. The exact dates are set by ACARA and communicated to schools well in advance. Schools are required to schedule their tests as early as possible within the window, with priority given to the first week. This means most students will sit their NAPLAN tests in the first few days of the testing period.

Reading, Writing, Conventions of Language, Numeracy
Your child's school will notify you of the specific dates your child will be tested. Tests are spread across multiple days — students do not sit all four domains on the same day. This helps reduce fatigue and allows each domain to receive appropriate focus.
If your child is absent on a scheduled test day, schools typically offer catch-up sessions within the testing window. There is no option to sit NAPLAN outside the designated window, so if your child misses the entire period due to extended illness or other circumstances, they simply will not have results for that year.
What to Expect in the Lead-Up
Schools will generally communicate with parents in Term 1 about NAPLAN arrangements. Many schools conduct brief familiarisation sessions so students are comfortable with the online testing platform before the actual assessment. These sessions are about navigating the interface — using the keyboard, understanding question formats, and practising with the adaptive system — rather than about academic content.
The Four Domains Tested
NAPLAN assesses students across four clearly defined domains. Each domain targets a specific set of literacy or numeracy skills considered essential to a student's educational development. Understanding what each domain covers can help you have informed conversations with your child and their teachers.
Reading
The Reading domain assesses a student's ability to understand and interpret written texts. Students are presented with a range of text types — narrative, informational, persuasive, and instructional — and answer questions that test literal comprehension, inference, interpretation, and critical analysis.
Questions are presented in multiple-choice and selected-response formats. Students need to read passages carefully and demonstrate that they can extract meaning, identify purpose, and draw conclusions from the text. The complexity of texts and questions is calibrated to the student's year level, and in the online adaptive format, it adjusts based on how the student is performing.
Writing
The Writing domain requires students to produce a written response to a given prompt. This is the one domain where Year 3 students still complete their response on paper, while students in Years 5, 7, and 9 write their responses online.
Students are typically given a stimulus — such as an image, a title, or a brief scenario — and asked to write in a particular genre (narrative or persuasive). Their response is assessed on criteria including audience awareness, text structure, ideas, persuasive devices or narrative techniques, vocabulary, cohesion, paragraphing, sentence structure, punctuation, and spelling.
Conventions of Language
Conventions of Language is the domain that covers spelling, grammar, and punctuation. It replaced the older "Language Conventions" label and tests whether students can apply the rules of written English accurately.
Questions are presented in multiple-choice format and may ask students to identify errors, select correct spellings, choose appropriate punctuation, or demonstrate understanding of grammatical structures. This domain is entirely online for all year levels.
Numeracy
The Numeracy domain assesses mathematical reasoning and problem-solving. It covers a broad range of mathematical content including number and algebra, measurement and geometry, and statistics and probability — all aligned to the Australian Curriculum.
Students encounter a mix of multiple-choice, selected-response, and short-answer questions. Calculators are not permitted. Questions are designed to test not just procedural knowledge but also the ability to apply mathematical thinking to real-world scenarios.

How Online Adaptive Testing Works
One of the most significant changes to NAPLAN in recent years is the move to online adaptive testing, also called tailored testing. This system, fully implemented since 2023, fundamentally changes how the assessment works compared to the old paper-based format.
What "Adaptive" Means
In a traditional paper test, every student receives the same questions. In NAPLAN's adaptive online format, the test adjusts its difficulty in real time based on how a student is responding.
Here is how it works: each online NAPLAN test is divided into stages. After completing an initial set of questions (the first stage), the system analyses the student's responses and directs them to a second stage that is calibrated to their demonstrated ability level. If a student performs strongly in the first stage, they receive a more challenging second stage. If they find the first stage difficult, the second stage adjusts to a more accessible level.
How Adaptive Testing Works in Practice
Stage 1: Common Starting Point
All students begin with the same set of questions, designed to assess a broad range of ability levels.
Automatic Analysis
The platform analyses responses from Stage 1 to determine the student's current performance level.
Stage 2: Tailored Difficulty
Students are directed to a second set of questions matched to their demonstrated ability — more challenging, standard, or more accessible.
Comprehensive Result
The final result reflects performance across both stages, providing a more precise and accurate measure than a one-size-fits-all test.
Why Adaptive Testing Is Better
The adaptive approach offers several advantages for students and parents:
More accurate results. By presenting questions that are appropriately challenging for each student, the test can measure ability more precisely. A student who finds every question too easy — or too hard — does not provide useful diagnostic information. Adaptive testing avoids both extremes.
Reduced frustration and anxiety. Students are less likely to encounter a long run of questions that are far beyond their level, which can be demoralising in a traditional fixed test. The tailored approach means each student's experience is more closely matched to their ability.
Better measurement at the extremes. High-performing students are presented with questions that genuinely challenge them, allowing the test to distinguish between "strong" and "exceptional" more effectively. Similarly, students who are struggling receive questions that can pinpoint where their skills currently sit, rather than simply recording a string of incorrect answers.
What Students See on Screen
The online testing platform is purpose-built for NAPLAN. Students log in using credentials provided by their school. The interface is clean and straightforward, with tools such as a highlighter, a ruler (for numeracy questions), and the ability to flag questions for review.
Students cannot go back to earlier stages once they have progressed, but they can navigate within a stage to review and change answers. There is a timer visible on screen, and the platform saves progress automatically — so if there is a technical issue, the student can resume where they left off.
Year 3 Writing Exception
While Reading, Conventions of Language, and Numeracy are completed online for all year levels, Year 3 Writing is still completed on paper. This recognises that many Year 3 students are still developing their typing skills and can express their ideas more fully through handwriting.
Understanding NAPLAN Results
NAPLAN results are reported using a proficiency standard model that was introduced in 2023, replacing the old Band system. This new approach is designed to be clearer and more meaningful for parents.
The Four Proficiency Levels
Each student's performance in each domain is reported against one of four proficiency levels:
NAPLAN Proficiency Levels
How your child's performance is categorised
Above Expected Standard
Student demonstrates skills well above what is expected at their year level
At Expected Standard
Student has met the proficiency standard expected for their year level — this is the goal
Working Towards Standard
Student is working towards the expected standard and may benefit from targeted support
Below Expected Standard
Student needs focused, additional support to meet the expected standard
The key benchmark is Strong. A result of "Strong" means your child has demonstrated the literacy or numeracy skills expected for their year level. This is not a mediocre result — it is the standard that educators and policymakers have determined represents solid, age-appropriate proficiency.
Exceeding indicates your child is performing above the expected standard for their year level. This is a positive outcome, but it does not mean your child is "gifted" in any formal sense — it simply means they demonstrated skills beyond what is typically expected.
Developing means your child is on the way to meeting the expected standard but is not yet there. This is a signal that some targeted support — whether at school, at home, or both — may help them progress.
Needs Additional Support indicates that your child's skills in that domain are significantly below the expected standard and that focused intervention is recommended. If your child receives this result, their school will typically discuss strategies and support options with you.
How to Read Your Child's Report
Your child's Individual Student Report will show:
- Their proficiency level in each of the four domains
- A scaled score that allows comparison across years (so you can track growth over time)
- How their results compare to the national average for their year level
- If they have previous NAPLAN results, a visual representation of their progress over time
The scaled score is particularly useful because it sits on a continuous scale from Year 3 to Year 9. This means if your child scored, say, 450 in Numeracy in Year 5 and 520 in Year 7, you can see genuine growth over time — even though the test content is different at each year level.
"NAPLAN is designed to provide information about whether students are meeting literacy and numeracy standards. It is one source of information and should be considered alongside other school-based assessments."
Australian Curriculum, Assessment and Reporting Authority
When Results Are Released
One of the benefits of the move to March testing is that results are now available much earlier in the school year than under the old May schedule. Parents typically receive Individual Student Reports within a few months of the testing window — generally by mid-year. Schools receive results earlier than parents, allowing teachers to incorporate the data into their teaching planning.
How Parents Can Support Their Child
This is one of the most important sections of this guide, because it addresses a question every parent asks: what should I do to help my child with NAPLAN?
The answer, backed by ACARA's own guidance, might surprise you. ACARA — the body responsible for NAPLAN — does not recommend specific coaching or preparation programs for NAPLAN. Their position is that NAPLAN is designed to assess skills that students develop through the normal school curriculum, and that the best preparation is consistent, quality classroom teaching.
That said, there are absolutely practical, low-stress ways you can support your child. The goal is not to "cram" for NAPLAN but to build the underlying skills that NAPLAN measures — skills that benefit your child far beyond any single test.
Practical Ways to Support Your Child Before NAPLAN
- ✓Encourage regular reading at home — fiction, non-fiction, newspapers, magazines, anything that engages them
- ✓Have conversations about what they read — ask about characters, themes, opinions, and predictions
- ✓Practise writing for different purposes — a letter to a relative, a short story, a persuasive argument about screen time
- ✓Play word games and puzzles — crosswords, Scrabble, Boggle, or word-based apps can build vocabulary and spelling
- ✓Incorporate maths into daily life — cooking measurements, budgeting pocket money, estimating distances or travel times
- ✓Ensure your child is familiar with the online testing platform — most schools run familiarisation sessions
- ✓Maintain normal routines in the lead-up — adequate sleep, balanced meals, and regular physical activity
- ✓Talk about NAPLAN in a calm, matter-of-fact way — avoid language that frames it as a high-stakes event
What Not to Do
Equally important is what you should avoid:
Do not create excessive pressure. NAPLAN is not an exam your child passes or fails. Framing it as a make-or-break event can increase anxiety and actually harm performance. Research consistently shows that test anxiety reduces cognitive performance, particularly in areas like working memory that are critical for reading comprehension and mathematical reasoning.
Do not invest in expensive NAPLAN-specific coaching. The skills NAPLAN measures are the same skills your child develops every day at school. A dedicated NAPLAN coaching program is unlikely to provide benefits beyond what consistent classroom learning and supportive home habits already offer.
Do not compare your child to others. Every child develops at a different rate. A "Developing" result in Year 3 does not predict a "Developing" result in Year 5. NAPLAN is a snapshot, not a forecast.
On the Day
On the day of each test, keep things as normal as possible. Make sure your child has had a good breakfast, arrives at school on time, and has their device (if required — most schools provide devices) and any other materials their school has specified. Remind them that it is okay not to know every answer, that they should try their best, and that you will be proud of them regardless of the outcome.
Managing Test Anxiety
If your child experiences significant anxiety about tests, speak with their classroom teacher or school counsellor before the NAPLAN window. Schools can make accommodations for students with documented anxiety or other needs, and early communication ensures appropriate support is in place.
NAPLAN vs Selective School Tests: Understanding the Difference
This is a distinction that causes genuine confusion for many Australian parents, so let us be very clear: NAPLAN and selective school entrance tests are completely different assessments with different purposes, different formats, and different stakes.
NAPLAN Is Not a Selective School Test
NAPLAN is a national diagnostic assessment. Its purpose is to measure literacy and numeracy skills against a national standard. It is administered to all students, and the results are used to inform teaching, identify trends, and allocate educational resources. There are no consequences for individual students based on their NAPLAN results — no school placements, no streaming decisions, no competitive rankings.
Selective school entrance tests — such as the NSW Selective High School Placement Test, the Opportunity Class (OC) test, or the HAST (Higher Ability Selection Test) — are competitive placement exams. Their purpose is to rank students against each other and select the highest-performing candidates for a limited number of places. These tests have direct, significant consequences: they determine whether a student gains entry to a specific school.
NAPLAN vs Selective School Tests
Understanding the key differences
| Feature | Option 1 | Option 2 | Verdict |
|---|---|---|---|
| Purpose | Diagnostic — measures skills against national standards | Competitive — ranks students for limited school places | Fundamentally different goals |
| Who Sits It | All students in Years 3, 5, 7, 9 | Only students who apply for selective entry | Universal vs opt-in |
| Consequences | No direct consequences for students | Determines school placement | Low stakes vs high stakes |
| Format | Adaptive online (adjusts to ability) | Fixed difficulty (same questions for all) | Different testing approaches |
| Preparation | ACARA does not recommend coaching | Targeted preparation is common and beneficial | Different preparation needs |
| Administered By | ACARA (national body) | State education departments or ACER | Different organisations |
Can NAPLAN Results Indicate Selective Potential?
While NAPLAN and selective tests are different, a child who performs at the Exceeding level in NAPLAN is demonstrating strong literacy and numeracy skills that are certainly relevant to selective school preparation. However, selective tests also assess thinking skills (abstract and logical reasoning), which NAPLAN does not cover at all.
So while strong NAPLAN results are encouraging, they do not tell the whole story. A child aiming for selective school entry needs to develop additional skills — particularly in areas like pattern recognition, spatial reasoning, and logical deduction — that fall outside NAPLAN's scope entirely.
If Your Child Is Preparing for Selective Entry
If your child is in Year 4 (preparing for the OC test) or Year 6 (preparing for the Selective High School test), NAPLAN preparation and selective test preparation are not the same thing. The literacy and numeracy foundations that NAPLAN measures are certainly part of the picture, but selective test preparation requires targeted work on thinking skills, test strategy, time management under pressure, and familiarity with specific question types.
For families preparing for selective school entry, a structured approach that goes beyond standard classroom learning is generally necessary. You can explore our guides on selective school preparation and Opportunity Class preparation for detailed strategies tailored to those specific tests.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is NAPLAN compulsory?
NAPLAN is expected of all students in Years 3, 5, 7, and 9. While parents can formally withdraw their child, education authorities strongly encourage participation because the data helps schools and governments understand how students are progressing nationally. If you are considering withdrawal, discuss the implications with your child's school principal first.
Can my child use a calculator during NAPLAN?
No. Calculators are not permitted during the Numeracy domain. Students are expected to perform calculations mentally or using pen-and-paper methods. The questions are designed with this in mind — they test mathematical reasoning, not computational speed with large numbers.
What if my child has a disability or learning difficulty?
Schools can provide adjustments for students with disabilities or specific learning needs. These might include extra time, a scribe, assistive technology, or a separate testing space. Adjustments should be discussed with the school well before the testing window so they can be arranged and documented appropriately.
Do NAPLAN results affect my child's school report?
NAPLAN results are reported separately from school-based assessments. They appear on a dedicated Individual Student Report, not on the regular school report card. However, some schools may reference NAPLAN data in parent-teacher discussions as one source of information about a student's progress.
How is the Writing test marked?
Writing responses are marked by trained assessors against a detailed rubric. Each response is typically assessed by two independent markers. The criteria cover ten dimensions including audience, text structure, ideas, vocabulary, cohesion, paragraphing, sentence structure, punctuation, and spelling. For Years 5, 7, and 9, responses are typed online; for Year 3, they are handwritten.
My child got "Developing" — should I be worried?
A "Developing" result means your child is working towards the expected standard. It is not a cause for panic, but it is a signal worth paying attention to. Talk with your child's teacher about what specific areas need support and what strategies — at school and at home — might help your child progress toward the "Strong" level. Many children who are "Developing" in one year reach "Strong" by the next testing point.
Can I see past NAPLAN papers?
ACARA provides demonstration tests on the NAPLAN Online platform that show the format and style of questions. Full past papers are not publicly released in the same way as some other tests, but the demonstration tests give a clear sense of what to expect. Your child's school may also use these in familiarisation sessions.
Does NAPLAN matter for university entry?
No. NAPLAN results play no role in university admissions. The ATAR (Australian Tertiary Admission Rank), which is calculated from Year 12 results, is the primary metric for university entry. NAPLAN is a Years 3-9 assessment and has no connection to the HSC, VCE, QCE, or any other Year 12 qualification.
When will NAPLAN 2026 results be released?
NAPLAN results are typically released to schools within 6-8 weeks of testing, with Individual Student Reports sent to parents by mid-year (usually June-July). The shift to March testing has significantly reduced the wait time compared to the old May testing schedule.
How can I help my child prepare for NAPLAN without creating stress?
Focus on building strong literacy and numeracy habits year-round rather than cramming before the test. Regular reading, conversations about books and current events, incorporating maths into daily life, and ensuring your child is familiar with the online testing platform are all effective, low-pressure approaches. Avoid framing NAPLAN as a high-stakes event.
While NAPLAN is a diagnostic assessment, selective school tests require targeted preparation. Explore our structured courses designed to build the skills your child needs for competitive placement exams.
