School students from a language background other than English are outperforming their native English speaking peers in NAPLAN, according to the latest data.
The national NAPLAN report revealed the results of multilingual students, as well Indigenous students, are improving, but some say results across the board are stagnant, and are pushing to have the minimum standard lifted.
About half of all Australian schools sat the NAPLAN test using computers this year.
All schools have been told they can use pen and paper next week, if they wish.
