<h2>This year NAPLAN takes place between 14 -16 May for paper tests and 14 -24 May for schools participating in NAPLAN Online.</h2>
<p>More than half of NSW public schools will participate in NAPLAN Online in 2019 with all schools expected to complete NAPLAN Online next year.</p>
<p>NAPLAN data is used to help monitor student progress over time against a national measure and to identify areas of strength and improvement. It is used in combination with other school assessments to guide and support student learning.</p>
<p>The transition to <a href="https://education.nsw.gov.au/teaching-and-learning/student-assessment/naplan-online">NAPLAN Online</a> offers several benefits for students and teachers including a better assessment, more precise information about what a student knows and can do. Many students find the online assessment more engaging. Year 3 writing will continue to be completed on paper for all schools.</p>
<p>More information on NAPLAN is available on the <a href="https://www.nap.edu.au/">ACARA website</a>.</p>
