Do our schools need NAPLAN?

These are the Adelaide West and Beaches schools that consistently top the state’s NAPLAN results.

An independent analysis of five years of NAPLAN results has revealed the schools that performed the best in the Year 5 and Year 9 tests between 2014 and 2018.

Over that five-year period, Immanuel Primary School, in Novar Gardens, had higher Year 5 yearly results than any other school in the state, scoring an average of 2629.6 each year.

The top performing Year 9 school was Westminster School, in Marion, where the average yearly result was 3017.0 for the five years.

To find how each school performed between 2014 and 2018, their average scores for each year were combined and the yearly average found.

Special schools, schools with fewer than 20 students enrolled in either year, and schools that did not report any results for NAPLAN subjects in either year were excluded from the analysis.

The figures were independently compiled from the Federal Government’s MySchool website.

That revealed St Mary’s Memorial School, in Glenelg, had the second highest results for Year 5s over that period, with a yearly average of 2605.6.

The third best performing Year 5 school was Westminster School, in Marion, with five yearly average results of 2603.6.

The second-best performing Year 9 results were at Emmaus Christian College, in South Plympton, where yearly results were 3016.8.
