NAPLAN 2018
For the past 18 months, St Joseph's students have been learning to use TEEL paragraphs as a basic structure to improve their use of writing to communicate ideas. This focus on writing has been successful, with our current Year 10 students displaying outstanding growth in NAPLAN and assessment data for writing skills between their Year 7 and 9 tests, so much so that they have moved from being 11 points below state average in Year 7 to achieving a mean score above both state and national average in Year 9. In addition, our students achieved growth well above state and national averages in all NAPLAN skill areas. Congratulations to our students and staff for such amazing results!
