On+Demand+Testing

= __On Demand Testing__ =

All Year 7 - 10 students are tested in READING and NUMBER twice a year. Tests are conducted in English and Maths classes and Coaches will support the setting up of these tests, as well as generating the reports and uploading results to the SPA program, for all teachers to access.

English and Maths teachers in particular are able to test their classes with adaptive tests in other strands, including Spelling, Writing, Measurement, Chance and Data, Space and Structure. Teachers are also able to test students using diagnostic linear tests in each of the strands. A Coach is able to support teachers in setting up these tests and accessing their reports. Alternatively links to quick guides on creating a session and generating reports are here:

In order to set a session or generate a report, the TEST NUMBER is required. The table below lists the TEST NUMBER for the Adaptive Tests for READING and NUMBER.
