What does the Origin Primary School Trend report provide?

The following visualisations are available in this report:

Top 5 Primary Schools

• This stacked column chart displays the top 5 primary schools trend for the selected high school.
• 10 years of historical data will eventually be included, however the earliest year displayed is 2011. This is due to unavailability of high-quality data prior to this year.
• Some schools and years have a column labelled “unknown”. This means the students came from a non-government school, interstate or overseas primary schools, or they did not do the NAPLAN 5 assessment, so a prior record has not been found for them. For example schools/s near the border with another state will have a large unknown component. This indicates the commencing Y7 students went to primary schools in the state across the border.

Due to privacy reasons we only receive NAPLAN data for NSW.
