Best Start
Children start school with a range of early literacy and numeracy knowledge, skills and understandings. The Best Start Kindergarten Assessment is a state wide assessment that helps teachers identify the literacy and numeracy skills of each student at the beginning of Kindergarten. The assessment provides teachers with information on how to best support each student’s needs at school. It consists of both a literacy and numeracy component.

This Best Start Assessment can also be completed in a student's home language to support them to demonstrate their literacy and numeracy skills in the language which they are most confident in.
