Kardinia International College and Chilwell Primary School are Geelong’s best schools for NAPLAN results, new data shows.

An independent analysis of newly-released 2023 NAPLAN results has revealed the schools which performed the best in the year 5 and 9 tests.

It’s the first time NAPLAN schoolwide results have been published in the same year the test was conducted, but changes to the test timing and measurement method mean results are not directly comparable to previous years.

The results, which dip to below 500 at a number of state schools schools, come as nearly one in three Victorian students – or about 300,000 pupils – are failing to meet national standards in English and maths.

Chilwell Primary School, in Newtown, leads the pack for primary school results in Geelong, scoring an average of 527.0 this year.

Ocean Grove Primary School was the second best for the region with an average score of 523.2, while Geelong Grammar School was the third best with an average score of 522.2.

The top performing secondary school was Kardinia International College where the average result was 623.8.

The Geelong College was the second best for the region with an average score of 604.2, while Geelong Grammar School was the third best with an average score of 603.6.

To determine how each school performed in 2023, the scores for all five test subjects for the student cohort were combined and the average found.

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