ICAS success stories
With the last ICAS done today I am pleased to say it all went off without a hitch! Thanks heaps for all your help … look forward to doing this all again next year.
ICAS was a very rewarding experience for our students. The process of payment, registration and students participating in the online test went very smoothly. I'd highly recommend this extra curriculum activity to all schools.
The children found the whole experience intellectually challenging, rewarding and stress-free. It was fantastic to see the online results come back within a week or so of the competition. The end result has been a rich and rewarding competition for our students. Parents love the feedback, and the opportunity for children to be rewarded for academic talent is priceless.
Congratulations on such a fast turn around and very useful report analysis. Being a school co-ordinator, I was very impressed with the level of detail and data breakdown in the comprehensive and year group reports. Thank you ICAS Assessments.
ICAS Science provides valuable data that identifies areas of growth and development in science knowledge and skills. The style of questions also encourages critical thinking. The online results portal is very easy to use, and is filterable which makes your search even quicker. Data from previous years is stored there too so it makes comparisons from year to year very quick and easy.

Parents: We care about your time - so we don't want you to have to spend it on hold on our customer service line. Our call centre has been getting many enquiries from parents wanting to book their child for a late ICAS entry at their school, or who are clicking on the shop and finding that their PPS code is invalid. To save you waiting, we just want to remind you that PPS entries for this year's ICAS have now closed. This means your PPS code has expired. We all look forward to welcoming you for next year's ICAS. 😊
Only one more sleep before kick-off... ICAS 2022 officially starts tomorrow! From all of us on the team, we wish every student taking part in this year's competition every success, confidence, focus, and above all fun as you sit your subjects. If you're sitting your Writing or Digital Technologies test tomorrow, remember the basics of feeling awesome and in the zone: a healthy dinner, great night's sleep, and calm morning. You got this!

What does it take to run a school? A LOT. The role of a primary school principal is not for the faint-hearted, covering it all from leading teaching and learning, navigating compliance, budgets and governance, to managing the hopes and fears of parents. Principals are champions for their school communities and each day contribute to the lives of children and enable them to thrive. On Australian Primary Principals’ Day, we take our hats off to these dedicated leaders and say a huge “Thank you” today. #principalsday2022 #leadership #community #schools #lifelonglearning
