澳大利亚最高考试官员谴责私立学校在入学时使用国家考试分数,称这是滥用教学指导而不是学生排名的结果。 Australia’s top test official condemns private schools for using national test scores in admissions, calling it a misuse of results meant for teaching guidance, not student ranking.

澳大利亚ANPANLAN测试系统负责人Stephen Gniel批评私立学校在入学和奖学金方面使用国家考试分数,称其为“极端滥用”用于指导教学的诊断工具,而非普通学生。 Stephen Gniel, head of Australia’s NAPLAN testing system, has criticized private schools for using national test scores in admissions and scholarships, calling it a "horrendous misuse" of a diagnostic tool meant to guide teaching, not rank students. 他敦促家长不要在入学期间分享成绩,并警告不要进行过多的测试准备,强调分数是快照,而不是确定的措施。 He urged parents not to share results during enrolment and warned against excessive test prep, emphasizing that scores are snapshots, not definitive measures. 全国结果没有多少改善,3、5、7和9年级近三分之一的学生在核心技能方面挣扎。 National results showed little improvement, with nearly a third of students in Years 3, 5, 7, and 9 struggling in core skills. 虽然一些学校说,它们把成果作为许多因素中的一个因素,但公众比较和有选择地使用结果助长了一种竞争文化,这始终令人关切。 While some schools say they use results as one factor among many, concerns persist that public comparisons and selective use fuel a competitive culture. ACARA避免了学校排名,而是将具有类似社会经济特征的机构进行比较,专家们强调,公平评价需要背景和长期进展跟踪。 ACARA avoids school rankings, instead comparing institutions with similar socioeconomic profiles, and experts stress that fair evaluation requires context and long-term progress tracking.
