NAPLAN 2025: What’s New and How to Prepare Effectively

 



NAPLAN 2025: What’s New and How to Prepare Effectively

By Kiya Learning – Online Education Experts in Australia

NAPLAN (National Assessment Program – Literacy and Numeracy) is a crucial benchmark in every Australian student’s academic journey. Conducted annually for students in Years 3, 5, 7, and 9, this standardized test assesses skills that are essential for learning – reading, writing, language conventions, and numeracy.

With NAPLAN 2025 around the corner, parents and students are eager to understand what’s new and how to best prepare for the upcoming format. At Kiya Learning, we believe that early and smart preparation leads to success — and we’re here to guide you every step of the way.


📌 What is New in NAPLAN 2025?

The NAPLAN 2025 format continues to evolve, reflecting Australia’s national curriculum goals and education system priorities. Here are some key updates:

  • Adaptive Testing Format: NAPLAN continues with its adaptive online format, where questions adjust in difficulty based on student performance. This personalises the experience and provides a more accurate assessment.
  • Earlier Testing Window: As introduced in 2023, NAPLAN 2025 will also take place in Term 1 (March) instead of Term 2. This helps schools identify student needs earlier in the year.
  • Reporting Bands Update: Proficiency standards introduced in 2023 are expected to continue in 2025. Students will be assessed using four proficiency levels: Exceeding, Strong, Developing, and Needs Additional Support.

Understanding these changes is the first step in ensuring that your child is fully prepared.


📘 Understand the NAPLAN 2025 Format

NAPLAN tests cover four key areas:

  1. Reading – comprehension of various texts.
  2. Writing – narrative or persuasive writing tasks.
  3. Language Conventions – spelling, grammar, punctuation.
  4. Numeracy – problem-solving using arithmetic, measurement, and data interpretation.

The adaptive online test means that performance in initial questions will determine the difficulty level of subsequent questions. So, early accuracy is crucial.

At Kiya Learning, we guide students through mock adaptive tests so they feel confident navigating the real test.


📖 Read Regularly

To do well in NAPLAN’s reading and writing sections, reading is your child’s superpower. Encourage them to read:

  • Fiction and non-fiction books
  • News articles (age-appropriate)
  • Magazines or educational blogs

Reading helps improve comprehension, builds language skills, and expands general knowledge — all of which are vital for NAPLAN success.


️ Practice Writing

The NAPLAN writing task requires students to craft a narrative or persuasive piece. Here’s how your child can prepare:

  • Practice writing essays within a 40-minute timeframe.
  • Focus on structure, clarity, and creativity.
  • Use rich vocabulary and correct grammar.

At Kiya Learning, we offer NAPLAN writing practice sessions with personalised feedback to help students refine their writing style.


➗ Master Numeracy Skills

Many students find numeracy challenging — especially in adaptive tests where question difficulty increases.

To succeed in NAPLAN Numeracy:

  • Build a strong foundation in addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.
  • Understand fractions, decimals, percentages, and measurements.
  • Practice problem-solving using real-world examples.

Our expert tutors at Kiya Learning break down complex concepts and use interactive tools to make learning maths fun and effective.


🧠 Build Vocabulary

A strong vocabulary is key for both reading comprehension and writing. You can help your child by:

  • Introducing a word of the day
  • Playing word games and doing crossword puzzles
  • Encouraging the use of new words in daily conversations

We integrate vocabulary-building exercises in our NAPLAN preparation programs so students can express their ideas clearly and effectively.


⏰ Develop Time Management Skills

Each NAPLAN section is timed, so students must learn to:

  • Read questions quickly but carefully
  • Allocate time wisely across sections
  • Avoid spending too long on one difficult question

We train students through timed mock tests so they learn to manage stress and pace themselves during the exam.


🧘 Stay Calm and Confident

Test anxiety can affect performance. Help your child stay relaxed by:

  • Ensuring proper rest and nutrition before the test
  • Practicing breathing techniques and positive self-talk
  • Reminding them that NAPLAN is just one part of their learning journey

At Kiya Learning, we focus not just on academic preparation but also on mental well-being and confidence-building.


📄 Use NAPLAN Past Papers for Practice

Past NAPLAN papers are valuable tools for preparation. They help students:

  • Understand question patterns
  • Practice under real exam conditions
  • Identify weak areas for improvement

We use a wide range of official and curated practice papers in our programs to ensure students are exam-ready.
