When will the 2021 NAPLAN Trial Tests from Kilbaha be available?
In 2020 ACARA cancelled the NAPLAN Tests because of the disruption to schools caused by COVID-19. Kilbaha had already prepared interactive NAPLAN Trial Tests for 2020. Because very few schools purchased the 2020 Trial Tests, these SAME tests have been rebadged as 2021 for sale this year.
- The 2021 Kilbaha NAPLAN Trial Tests with automatic marking are available now.
- Years 3, 5, 7, 9. Language Conventions, Reading, Writing, Numeracy.

Improve your school's Literacy and Numeracy with these great ideas
There has been a lot of coverage in the media about the value of the NAPLAN Tests. Many schools have used the NAPLAN Tests to monitor the programs they have put in place to improve the literacy (spelling, grammar, punctuation, reading comprehension, persuasive and narrative writing) and numeracy abilities of their students. Is your school in the list provided by ACARA? Read your story. If your school is not shown in the list, read some of them and find out what could be done in your school to improve literacy and numeracy.
