2022 NAPLAN REPORT

Students in Years 3, 5, 7 and 9 undertake the NAPLAN testing over a three-day period in May. Individual reports were generated by the Victorian Curriculum and Assessment Authority (VCAA) and posted to parents. The graphs below show Ruyton’s results compared with results across the State. The graphs indicate performance in key learning areas and show achievement in a box and whisker format. The box represents the middle 50% of the students’ scores and the middle score (median) for the group is shown by the black line within the box. The lower and upper whiskers each represent the achievement of 15% of students between the 10th-25th and 75th-90th percentile

Year 3

The scores are organised into various bands (shown on the right axis). Different bands are set as National Minimum Standards for each year level.

Congratulations to Grace Nguyen, the Dux of Ruyton Girls’ School for 2022, achieving an ATAR of 99.75.

Whilst we celebrate the 2022 ATAR results at Ruyton, our measure of success does not rely on a single score. We empower our girls to lead lives of impact and purpose with courage, character and compassion, both now and in the future. This is how we define success.
