Three Australian outlets report an analysis of NAPLAN results used to identify the top 160 primary schools in New South Wales for student progress in maths and literacy. The articles state that more than 2,000 primary schools are considered, with 160 schools selected as performing at the highest level on measures of growth. Each source presents the findings as a “revealed” list and directs readers to a searchable compilation of the ranked schools.
The coverage focuses on student learning progress rather than absolute achievement levels, using NAPLAN data to compare change over time. While the specific methodology details are not included in the provided summaries, the consistent framing across all three outlets is that the ranking is derived from NAPLAN outcomes and highlights schools showing stronger improvement in maths and literacy.
Overall, the reports emphasize the availability of the list and invite readers to search for individual schools within the top 160, as identified from the wider set of NSW primary schools included in the analysis.
