NAPLAN tests the same Australian Curriculum skills our personalised Maths and English programmes build every week. So your child isn’t cramming for a test, they’re strengthening the real skills behind it all year, then practising the exam format in the lead-up. Prepared and steady, not stressed.
NAPLAN (the National Assessment Program, Literacy and Numeracy) is an Australia-wide assessment sat each March by students in Years 3, 5, 7 and 9. It gives schools and families a national read on how a child is progressing in literacy and numeracy. It covers four areas: Reading, Writing, Conventions of Language (spelling, grammar and punctuation) and Numeracy. Most tests are online and adapt to the student’s answers, with Year 3 Writing done on paper.
| NAPLAN area | What it tests | Where we build it |
|---|---|---|
| Numeracy | Number, algebra, measurement, geometry, statistics and problem solving | Maths programme |
| Reading | Comprehension and interpretation of a range of texts | English programme |
| Conventions of Language | Spelling, grammar and punctuation | English programme |
| Writing | A creative, informative or persuasive piece to a set prompt | English programme |
Good NAPLAN results come from real skills, not test tricks. That is why NAPLAN preparation is built into how we already teach, in two ways.
Our Maths and English programmes follow the Victorian and Australian curricula, the very same content NAPLAN draws on. So every week your child works on their personalised programme, they’re strengthening the numeracy and literacy skills the tests reward, whether NAPLAN is months away or next week.
As the March tests approach, we add NAPLAN-style practice inside the centre. Maths students work through numeracy practice questions and full practice tests; English students practise reading and comprehension, language conventions, and writing. Familiar format, familiar timing, steadier nerves.
Doing both Maths and English? Your child gets the full NAPLAN spread, numeracy and literacy, as part of their normal weekly classes. Same $40 per subject per week, everything included, no separate NAPLAN course to buy.
“I am extremely happy with the tuition services provided here. My sons have been attending classes for English and math, they truly enjoy every session. The tutors are highly skilled, patient, and engaging, creating a learning environment that my children look forward to. Their understanding of the subjects has improved tremendously, and it’s clear they are gaining both confidence and a love for learning. I appreciate the personalized attention and the friendly atmosphere. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for quality tutoring services!”
“Travis and his team are fantastic and always available for any questions. My daughter really enjoys the sessions and can see the benefits at school. Would highly recommend.”
“Travis has been patient and understanding with meeting my 8 year old daughter where she is at, in her learning, and has given her the support and confidence to expand her knowledge in what he teaches, and with her own interests.”
Each centre runs the same personalised programme. Pick the closest one, or the day that suits your family.
NAPLAN (the National Assessment Program, Literacy and Numeracy) is an Australia-wide assessment sat each year in March by students in Years 3, 5, 7 and 9. It tests four areas: Reading, Writing, Conventions of Language (spelling, grammar and punctuation), and Numeracy. Most tests are done online and adapt to how the student is answering, with Year 3 Writing completed on paper.
Yes, and the best preparation is not last-minute cramming. NAPLAN tests the same Australian Curriculum skills schools teach all year, which is exactly what your child builds with us every week. In the lead-up we add exam-style numeracy and literacy practice under timed conditions, so the format and pacing feel familiar rather than a surprise on the day.
Both. Children on our Maths programme practise NAPLAN-style numeracy questions and practice tests. Children on our English programme practise Reading and comprehension, Language Conventions (spelling, grammar and punctuation), and Writing across the creative, informative and persuasive text types NAPLAN asks for. Families doing Maths and English get the full spread.
No. Because our regular Maths and English programmes already follow the Australian Curriculum, your child is building NAPLAN skills week to week. As the tests approach, we fold in extra practice papers rather than running a separate cram course, so the preparation is steady and stress-free.
Years 3, 5, 7 and 9, in March each year. We support students right through Foundation to Year 10, so children build the underlying skills well before their first NAPLAN year and keep strengthening them between sittings.
It is a snapshot, not a pass-or-fail exam, so there is no need for pressure at home. A prepared, calm child does their best work. Our aim is quiet confidence: strong foundations, a familiar test format, and no surprises on the day. The results also give you a useful, independent read on where your child is tracking.
