UNSW Educational Assessment Australia
Educational Assessment Australia Educational Assessment Australia (EAA) specialises in placement tests and school assessments including the International Competitions and Assessments for Schools (ICAS) https://www.eaa.unsw.edu.au/icas/about and the General Ability Test (GAT) https://www.eaa.unsw.edu.au/gat/about
The International Competitions and Assessments for Schools (ICAS), commonly referred to as the University of New South Wales competitions, are conducted annually in Australia and over 20 countries globally. Schools entering full cohorts of students in ICAS can maximise the range of diagnostic benefits available by enrolling in the Total Assessment Partnership (TAP) program. ICAS are independent skills-based assessments with a competition element. ICAS is unique, being the most comprehensive generally available suite of academic assessments and school tests for primary and secondary school students. The assessments comprise eight Computer Skills tests, eleven English tests, eleven Maths tests, eleven Science tests, five Spelling tests and ten Writing tests. https://www.eaa.unsw.edu.au/icas/about
The General Achievement Test (GAT) is a two-hour exam designed specifically for students in the middle years of schooling. This test is a school-administered assessment which provides a reliable and objective measurement of students’ proficiency across the core skills of Mathematics, Reading and Language and Writing. The beauty of GAT is that it can be offered at a time that suits your school’s assessment calendar and can be taken by the same students at the beginning and then again at the end of the year. https://www.eaa.unsw.edu.au/gat/about Other Services PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT • About Professional Development • Upcoming Conferences • Expression of Interest
