Queensland Teachers’ Union members are calling for an overhaul, or even a halt, of NAPLAN as parents consider taking their children out of this year’s tests.
Year 3, 5 and 9 students across 1700 Queensland schools will sit NAPLAN, which tests reading, writing, language and numeracy nationally, from Tuesday.
The national NAPLAN system has been labelled “broken”.

Assessments were cancelled last year due to the coronavirus pandemic.
This year, 70 per cent of schools in Australia, including 1151 Queensland schools, will participate in NAPLAN Online.
