Can I catch up on Year 9 NAPLAN?

I’m currently in Year 9 and have struggled with procrastination and anxiety, including social anxiety that has led me to see the school psychologist. My school is private and somewhat prestigious, but my absences have become a significant issue—I’ve missed important exams, and now the vice principal is requiring meetings with me.

Yesterday, I missed the reading test due to being sick and feeling anxious. Is there any way I can make up for it? I’m worried because I also missed my English exam during the end-of-year assessments and wasn’t permitted to take it on another day.

I’m feeling really stressed right now. Any advice would be appreciated!

  1. It sounds like you’re going through a really tough time, and it’s completely understandable to feel stressed about catching up, especially with everything you’re dealing with. Here are a few steps you might consider taking:

    1. Talk to Your Teachers: Reach out to your English teacher or the teachers of the subjects you missed. They might have options for you to make up the work or provide you with extra assistance.

    2. Meet with the Vice Principal: Since you’re already having meetings, be open about how you’re feeling. They may be able to provide support or special considerations for your situation.

    3. Consult the School Psychologist: Since you mentioned seeing the school psychologist, continue to talk to them about your anxiety and how it impacts your schoolwork. They might have strategies or can liaise with teachers for you.

    4. Check School Policies: Look into your school’s policies on missed assessments. Sometimes there may be provisions for students who have legitimate reasons for their absences.

    5. Focus on Future Assessments: While it’s important to catch up, try to focus on upcoming assignments and exams. Creating a study schedule might help manage your anxiety.

    6. Practice Self-Care: Don’t forget to take care of yourself. Make sure you’re getting enough rest, eating well, and finding time to relax.

    Remember, it’s okay to ask for help. You’re not alone in this, and many students face similar challenges. Take things one step at a time, and you’ll get through this.
