School reports
Preparing for school reports
The QCAA will inform schools when the Student and school summary report (SSSR) is released.
Before reports are released, schools should:
- check the principal (or delegate) has this year's NAPLAN School PIN to download the SSSR. This is in the QCAA Portal in the fileShare application, under the Reporting files tab.
- check new school leaders can access the Reporting files tab in fileShare to download writing responses and individual student reports . See the QCAA Portal for NAPLAN webpage for instructions.
Student and school summary report
Principals can access their SSSR via the Online National Assessment Platform.
- Platform guide 33: Student and school summary report (SSSR) (PDF, 415.8 KB) explains how to download and view the SSSR.
- How to interpret the SSSR information sheet (PDF, 5.3 MB) on the National Assessment Program (NAP) website provides detailed information about interpreting the SSSR and view online responses.
Individual student reports
We print individual student reports (ISRs) for students who participate in NAPLAN tests. Reports are sent directly to schools for distribution to parents and carers.
Proficiency standards
Individual student reports show student results using proficiency standards. More information on proficiency standards and proficiency level descriptions, is available on the National Assessment Program (NAP) website.

To download additional copies:
- Log into QCAA Portal
- Select the fileShare application tile
- Select Reporting files from the menu area.
- Select View to download the required files.
State schools can download current year student reports through OneSchool.

Principals can request copies of a student report for a previous NAPLAN year. To request previous year reports:
- Email naplan@qcaa.qld.edu.au with the following details of each student:
- first name
- last name
- date of birth
- year level at time of test
- year of test(s)
- principal's name, position, school and contact details.

- Schools will have 2 weeks to download the student report (from the date of QCAA uploading) before the file is removed.
Visit QCAA Portal for NAPLAN for information on fileShare access.
Note: The QCAA issues all reports, including replacement reports directly to schools. Schools then distribute to parents and carers.
