Project Details

Description

A behaviour-genetic study of the National Assessment Program - Literacy and Numeracy (NAPLAN) results. The National Assessment Program - Literacy and Numeracy (NAPLAN) tests are designed by educational authorities, are objective, and have been administered Australia-wide since 2008 so are unquestionably the most valuable national database on school achievement available. This project's twin studies of this data will provide a more solid base for public policy debates on educational policy and practice.
