New on-demand Stage snapshot assessments – Stages 3 and 5

Stage snapshots are designed to assess a broad range of outcomes within a learning stage. They identify students’ current understanding or skill level and can be used to complement other school-based assessment practices. They help identify strengths and possible areas for focus. They cover a broad range of syllabus outcomes for that learning stage so can be used to assess student’s prior knowledge before beginning the next learning stage or at the end of a learning stage.

The Microsoft Forms assessments can be used flexibly and support the timely provision of information to students and teachers.

New on-demand Stage snapshot assessments have been released:

  • Stage 3 – Science and technology
  • Stage 5 – Reading
  • Stage 5 (Core) – Numeracy.

To access these assessments, along with other Stage 2–4 reading and numeracy snapshots, visit Stage snapshots.
