Choose the current year

One term. Three precise pathways.

The year on the school report is the year to select below. We align the diagnostic and program to what comes next.

2027 NAPLAN

Current Year 2 & Year 4

Build before the test year.

Prepare for Year 3 or Year 5 NAPLAN with a clear baseline across Reading, Writing, Language Conventions and Numeracy.

  • Skill-by-skill starting point
  • Writing structure and language control
  • Numeracy accuracy and reasoning
OC pathway

Current Year 3

Start before Year 4.

Use Term 4 to build the core skills before the OC application and test cycle becomes the focus in Year 4.

  • English / Reading
  • Maths / Mathematical Reasoning
  • Thinking Skills
Book 2-hour OC diagnostic
Selective pathway

Current Year 5

Build before Year 6.

Enter the Selective test year knowing where marks and time are being lost across all four components.

  • Real test-condition diagnostic
  • Detailed parent report
  • Priority plan before Year 6

The diagnostic first

Know what to work on next.

More worksheets are not the answer when the starting point is unclear. We identify the boundary, explain it plainly and build from there.

01

Map the starting point

An in-person diagnostic shows what is secure, what is fragile and where time is being lost.

02

See the evidence

You receive a clear report that turns individual answers into practical skill priorities.

03

Build the Term 4 plan

We match the right program and focus areas to the child’s current year and next test cycle.

Four connected skill areas

Questions parents ask

Before you book.

Which school years is this Term 4 intake for?

The focused pathways are current Year 2 and Year 4 students preparing for NAPLAN in 2027, current Year 3 students starting OC preparation, and current Year 5 students starting Selective preparation.

Why start in Term 4?

Term 4 creates a useful runway before the next school year. It gives students time to identify skill gaps, build foundations and enter the test year with a clear plan.

What does the diagnostic cover?

The in-person diagnostic maps Reading, Mathematical Reasoning, Thinking Skills and Writing, then identifies the skills to prioritise next.

Where are sessions held?

All sessions are in person at PEN Education, Level 1, Top Ryde City Shopping Centre, Ryde NSW 2112.
