National Assessment Program (NAP)

The National Assessment Program (NAP) is a standardized testing initiative used in Australia to evaluate the academic performance of students across various grade levels and subjects. It provides a snapshot of how well students are mastering key skills in areas like reading, writing, and mathematics. The results help teachers, schools, and policymakers identify strengths and areas needing improvement, guiding better educational strategies. NAP assessments are typically conducted every few years and aim to ensure that all students receive quality education and are progressing appropriately during their schooling.
