Narrative Writing Task for NAPLAN 2010

The Writing task for the 2010 NAPLAN Writing test for Years 3, 5, 7 and 9 will be a narrative, as in previous NAPLAN writing tests. The NAPLAN writing task will be held on Tuesday 11 May 2010.

There is a possible change to a non-narrative writing task from 2011.

Persuasive writing tasks have been trialled and evaluated in 2009 and further trialling will take place in 2010 for possible use of a non-narrative task in NAPLAN testing from 2011.
