<br>
Taking NAPLAN requires less than four hours over three days, four times during a student&#39;s time at school. It is a point-in-time snapshot assessment of a student&#39;s achievements in the important areas of literacy and numeracy. And from that small investment comes a wealth of student, school and national information.  Literacy and numeracy tests have been undertaken in schools throughout the country for decades. NAPLAN complements these tests and adds a valuable national dimension.<br>
