Best Start

The Best Start Assessment is a tool used in all NSW Government schools to help teachers assess your child's skills as they enter school, and to tailor teaching to their individual needs. Teachers will sit with your child when they start school to assess literacy and numeracy skills. For a parent’s guide to this please visit this website.
