Import_Export Student Data - NAPLAN tab

You can use the NAPLAN tab to export projected listings of all students in years 3, 5, 7 and 9. There are two export modes. You can use the:

  • Selected Year Projection mode to export the NAPLAN student registration data (including Finalised Future Students) for the selected Year.
  • Next Year Projection mode to export the NAPLAN student registration data for next year (i.e Year + 1).

    Note: The Next Year Projection export is typically performed late in the current year when the government requests Year 3 registration data for next year. The Next Year Projection process finds all current and finalised future Students enrolled on the Process Date (NAPLAN test date), increments their Year Level by one, and exports the students whose incremented Year Level matches the selected Year Level From and To range.
 Opening the NAPLAN tab

To open the NAPLAN tab:

  1. Select Module > Students > Student Data Import/Export from the main menu.
    The WA SCSA tab of the Import/Export Student Data window is displayed.
    Tip: You can also access the student import and export functions by clicking .
  2. Click the NAPLAN tab.
    The NAPLAN tab of the Import/Export Student Data window is displayed.
