Best Start - Year 7

Year 7 students will participate in the Best Start Year 7 Assessment. Best Start is an online literacy and numeracy assessment available to secondary schools that assesses key literacy and numeracy skills of Year 7 students.

It is designed to assist teachers to identify students who may require additional support in developing their literacy and numeracy skills, to help identify student needs.

Feedback will be provided to teachers who may choose to share this with students, parents and carers during teacher interview processes. Best Start Year 7 is just one of a range of assessments the school uses to assess students.

Please inform the school office if your child has special requirements for support to complete the online assessment.

Students will be asked to bring headphones or earbuds that plug into a computer to enable them to hear audio during the assessment.
