Standardised Tests
The International Schools' Assessment (ISA) is a programme initiated by the Australian Council for Educational Research (ACER) and designed specifically for international schools. The ISA assesses students in three areas of learning: Mathematical Literacy, Reading and Writing, using pencil and paper tests designed for Years 4 to 10.
In the results below, "Other like schools" refers to schools with a similar percentage of native English speakers to non-native English speakers. Our results were removed from the data when the statistics were calculated.
