* Closing the life expectancy gap by 2031. No progress between 2006 and 2013. "The current rate of progress will have to gather considerable pace if the target is to be met," the report states.
* Did not achieve 95 per cent 4-year-old enrolment in early childhood education in remote communities by 2013. However, 85 per cent of children were enrolled in 2013.
* No overall improvement in halving the gap in child reading, writing and numeracy by 2018. About 70 per cent of indigenous students achieved Year 5 national minimum standards.

On track
