National data collection and reporting
ACARA is responsible for collecting, managing, analysing, evaluating and reporting statistical and related information about educational outcomes.
This includes the development of national performance measures, performance standards and national definitions. ACARA will provide information about the specific key performance measures against which student performance is assessed. This can currently be found in theMeasurement Framework for National Key Performance Measures
(70 KB).
ACARA will publish the National Report on Schooling in Australia from 2009 onward. This report will inform the Australian people on progress against the national goals for schooling and agreed national performance measures. View previous reports at www.mceetya.edu.au/mceetya/anr/
ACARA is also responsible for collecting data from schools for the purpose of accountability and reporting, research and analysis, and resource allocation. Information on individual schools will be published for the first time on a new national school performance website called My School in early 2010.
ACARA will also publish the NAPLAN National Report for 2009 and beyond.
