NAPLAN is a total joke. They TEACH kids how to pass NAPLAN and forget about anything else when NAPLAN testing is close. So, kids learn how to do the tests, not how to do anything else.... and that makes the results worthless.
Teachers are pressured to do that, not all of them do. Some teachers get very annoyed at the pressure, which I know from speaking to teachers I know personally.
And if the teachers don't "do as they are told", the principal can sack them now? It's completely broken. Great :( A.
