The preliminary report on NAPLAN results was due to be published today, however, some states are in disagreement with the national assessment authority over how they should be presented to the public.
ACARA has been canvassing different versions of the report since early June, whilst considering the reputational risk to the body, NAPLAN, and My School data.
Several state department heads have questioned whether data between the new online tests and the pen-and-paper version should be comparable after seeing early results.
