Janison sets global benchmark for high stakes exams with its delivery of NAPLAN Online

Janison Education Group Limited (ASX:JAN) (“ Janison ” or the “ Company ”), is proud to announce it has successfully completed the online assessment phase of NAPLAN 2021 (the “National Assessment Program – Literacy & Numeracy”), delivering the national schools test to the highest number of students with record levels of peak concurrent platform usage – greater than any schools online assessment event to date in Australia. This further strengthens Janison’s market-leading position in its ability to deliver high scale, high stakes exams.

NAPLAN is the annual[1] nationwide measure through which parents, teachers, schools, education authorities, governments and the broader community can determine whether young Australians are developing literacy and numeracy skills that provide the critical foundation for other learning and for their productive and successful participation in the community.

During May 2021, Janison’s assessment platform was used almost 3 million times by more than 800,000 school students across all states in Australia in years 3, 5, 7 and 9 during the NAPLAN Online testing window. At the peak, more than 195,000 students were being tested simultaneously around Australia. All of this sets a new record since Janison began the rollout of NAPLAN Online in 2017, and a first in online schools’ assessment in Australia.

NAPLAN Online and Janison’s Growth strategy

Janison’s stated growth strategy is to:

1. Continue to acquire enterprise clients on the Janison standardised assessment platform to enable delivery of high-stakes, high scale, exams, globally

2. Increase the number and reach of Janison’s school assessment products

Janison differentiates itself based on:

• Platform: Unparalleled security, scalability and reliability within a highly configurable, yet standardised, assessment platform

• Products: Unique assessment products such as ICAS, PISA for Schools developed in-house by world-leading test developers, or licensed from globally recognised partners, such as the OECD .

Today’s announcement and the successful delivery of the assessment element of NAPLAN Online is further evidence of Janison’s ability to provide a dependable assessment platform for enterprise clients to rely on, to deliver high scale exams with the highest integrity, security and confidence, anywhere in the world.

The federal Minister for Education and Youth, the Hon Alan Tudge MP, released a media statement on 26 May 2021 praising the latest online rollout of NAPLAN, in which he said: “NAPLAN Online provides better assessment, more precise results and, once all schools are online, a faster turnaround of information benefiting students, teachers and parents.”[2]

Janison’s CEO, David Caspari, said: “For us, this is our mission – to be a global force for good by powering best-in-class educational assessments with passion and purpose. I congratulate the Janison team for working seamlessly with Education Services Australia to bring us to this significant milestone and further evidence of Janison’s platform capability in high-scale, high-stakes exams.”
