NAPLAN results can provide useful insight, but they do not define your child’s abilities or show the full picture of their learning.
They may not explain why certain concepts feel difficult, or account for factors such as nerves, distraction or test-day pressure. When viewed alongside classroom work and teacher feedback, NAPLAN can help give a broader picture of your child’s progress.
While you wait for the results, there are still practical ways to support your child’s confidence, routine and key skills.
It is completely natural to wonder what the results will show. With individual student reports generally distributed to parents from the start of Term 3, many families are left questioning how their child performed and whether to seek extra support now or wait until the results are released.
Not every child who needs extra support will show it in the same way. Some children may be clearly struggling, while others may seem to be doing fine on the surface but still need help, more challenge, or a different approach to learning.
Sometimes it is clear that your child is struggling, teachers may have raised concerns over the years, school reports may have shown your child is falling behind, or your child may have started saying that school feels hard.
You may notice that your child:
Some children are doing okay at school, but because they are coping and not obviously struggling, they can be overlooked when it comes to extra support. Over time, they may begin to coast along rather than continue building skills and confidence. You may notice that your child:
Often, children are ready to move ahead but can begin to feel bored or disengaged at school because the work is not challenging them enough. You may notice that your child:
We know that confidence plays an important role in learning. When children lack confidence, they may worry about getting things wrong, avoid trying when faced with something new, or need lots of reassurance before attempting tasks on their own. You may notice that your child:
Some children learn better when concepts are broken down in a clearer or more structured way that suits how they process information. You may notice that your child:
Often, the pressure of a test can feel intimidating for children. They may understand the content, but pressure, timing, nerves, or distractions can affect how they perform in formal testing situations. You may notice that your child:
Australian families helped
Years of tutoring success
Customer satisfaction rating
For more than 30 years, we’ve supported over 100,000 Australian families, helping their children build confidence, catch up at school, and discover a love of learning.
Every child learns differently. Whether your child needs help catching up, building confidence, learning in a different way, or help moving ahead with more challenges, the most important thing is understanding what kind of support will help them most.
If you are unsure whether to wait for NAPLAN results or get support now, starting earlier can give you peace of mind. It can help you better understand your child’s learning and begin addressing concerns before results arrive.
We begin with an assessment to understand where your child is currently working, identify any learning gaps, and highlight areas of strength. Rather than waiting to see what NAPLAN results reveal, you will already have a clear picture of where they are at and what they need most.
From there, we create a personalised weekly learning plan tailored to your child's needs. So when NAPLAN results do come in, you will already know exactly where they are at and have the right support in place.
As your child strengthens their foundations, you’ll see them build skills and confidence, and keep moving forward at a pace that feels right for them.
If your child needs extra support, our online tutors are there to explain concepts further and answer questions, so your child can continue with confidence.
At Kinetic Education, every child’s learning starts with understanding where they are right now. We begin with an assessment process that looks across key areas of the Australian Curriculum, helping us see what your child already knows, where support may be needed, and where they are ready to progress.
From there, we provide a clear report that shows what your child has already achieved and what they are ready to work on next.
Whether your child is struggling and needs confidence, ready for a challenge, or needs a different kind of support, our personalised approach meets them at the right level.
We call this our Brick Wall Approach, because learning builds on itself. If a few bricks are missing early on, everything that comes next can feel shaky. We go back, fill in the gaps and rebuild strong foundations, giving your child the tools they need to catch up, keep up and get ahead.
The brick wall shows the areas within the curriculum your child has already achieved, while the red sections highlight where support may be needed.
Our reports help you see what your child has already achieved, where support may be needed, and what they are ready to work on next.
Each area we assess is aligned with the Australian Curriculum, giving you a clear picture of where your child’s learning sits.
Your child’s initial assessment, ongoing assessments, and weekly progress help guide their weekly lesson plan, so it is always targeted to their needs.
You’ve seen the apps that promise results but leave children feeling lost. You’ve also seen traditional tutoring that’s expensive, rigid, and hard to stick with.
Kinetic Education is different.
We combine self-paced learning (so your child learns when it suits your schedule) with real Australian tutors who check in, adjust lessons, and keep them on track.
It's the perfect mix of technology and human connection, the way learning should feel.
No more wondering if it's working. You'll see the progress every week: in the results, in your child's confidence, and in the smiles that come back to homework time.
Because when a child believes they can do it… they do.
The tutors were very engaged with my child at all times which helped immensely with their learning.

Our tutoring programs guide your child through the core maths and English skills that matter most. You can explore our Maths and English programs below.
100% recommend to any homeschoolers out there.
Great program! We homeschool and Kinetic has been a great support system with keeping us in line with the curriculum. 100% recommend to any homeschoolers out there.
I cannot recommend Kinetic Learning enough if your kids struggle with Math & English.
My son has been a Kinetic Learner for over a year and the lessons have really helped him as he is Dyslexic. His school teachers have seen a big difference in English so much so that he no longer needs support in reading. My son was not a lover of Math but since starting his journey with Kinetic Learning, he is engaged more and is willing to want to complete his weekly lessons. I cannot recommend Kinetic Learning enough if your kids struggle with Math & English. The support team are fantastic and are constantly in contact to discuss your kids progress and what they can do to help make the lessons manageable.
We're glad to have found them.
Kinetic Education became our life saver after an extended oversea travel which left my children bereft of Australian curriculum. Few months into the program, they were able to bounce back and in time for their Naplan. Graeme sent some Naplan prep tests ahead of Naplan. The tutors always called to check, the reports always on time, and the live support, excellent. Btw, Naplan results are just out and they excelled!
He is so good at maths now he can do calculations quicker than me!
My son has dramatically improved with his English and Maths from Kinetic, he has caught up in his grade and gained confidence in his ability to learn. I strongly recommend this online learning program to any parent who has a child who is struggling at school, or simply wants to improve in their grade. My child has difficulty focusing in a classroom environment and this program fixes that issue. I get to spend one on one time with him learning together, he pays attention and actually enjoys his lessons. He is so good at maths now he can do calculations quicker than me! Definitely worth it!
Kinetic Education has worked well with my 10yr ADD son.
Kinetic Education has worked well with my 10yr ADD son. The online platform is so easy to use. It gives my son the freedom to work on tasks in his own time without any pressure. The added perks keeps him really motivated. As a busy mum, the self-paced learning approach means I can be hands-off and it's been really satisfying seeling my son take ownership and responsibility in completing tasks on his own, and doing well.
My kids went from 6months behind their class in math skills to 1year ahead after using kinetic education for 2 years. Consistent practice and feedback from the team. Website works great on all kinds of devices. Absolutely recommend!!!
Within 3 months we can see the difference.
We found Kinetic online and went with it as this was the only platform which knew about kids on ASD High functioning activities. My son and Daughter got on the program and within 3 months we can see the difference where both of them had no difficulty doing their NAPLAN this year. Its 15 minutes a day gives the children an edge at school. Communication is great with regular calls and checkups from tutor and admin. Highly recommend.
This was fabulous to get us started for our homeschool journey.
The communication between you and the company/tutors is excellent. The material is very well designed to teach based off of Australian curriculum. My daughter responded well to the activities. The material is adjustable and relevant to what level my daughter is at. This was invaluable to us to start our journey into homeschool.
It has given me peace of mind I’m giving him the support he needs.
Deciding to homeschool my children this year after struggling with my son who has dyslexia and not getting support at school. I have been using kinetic education to help with english and maths and it has given me peace of mind I’m giving him the support he needs. His confidence has improved. I have a happier boy. With our tutor checking in regularly we can see the improvement. So happy we decided to go this way.
We love the support and flexibility Kinetic Education provide.
We’ve partnering with Kinetic Education for going in 12 months now. Our children love the lesson flows, they get to learn independently, have the phenomenal support from online tutors (real humans you can speak to), and as a parent I’m in regular contact with the teaching staff to receive real time updates on where our children are at. You can dial programs back to allow more time for integration, or speed them up in areas they are excelling. We love the support and flexibility Kinetic Education provide. Highly recommend their services whether you homeschool or are simply looking for additional supportive resources to aid your child in their learning journey.
We started kinetic education a few months ago. We never expected such outstanding results. We saw an improvement from week one! Our child has ASD and ADHD and has always needed a little more help. We have not looked back since joining Kinetic Education. Our daughters school even approached us asking what we were doing as our daughter had advanced in such a short amount of time. Our daughter quickly went from shutting down during maths to achieving 100% on maths sheets and tests. We can't thank this program enough.
My 6yr old has come leaps and bounds with his English, even though he has Dyslexia and Dyspraxia.
Cant recommend Kinetic enough. We homeschool both of our boys and this program has added everything that they need for maths and English. My 6yr old has come leaps and bounds with his English, even though he has Dyslexia and Dyspraxia. The Tutor is awesome, monthly feedback is amazing and the weekly reports go a long way!! Thanks for everything you do Kinetic!
This program changed my perspective on learning programs for ever!
This program changed my perspective on learning programs for ever! My once struggling child exceeded in her naplan tests achieving above average of the school rate! Wow! I highly recommend this being an addition to every child's homework!!!
We couldn’t be happier with how the kids are progressing.
We couldn’t be happier with how the kids are progressing. We’ve seen our daughter (who was really struggling with maths and English start to enjoy learning again. The team at kinetic education are so attentive and in tune with how the kids are learning, adjusting the weekly lessons to balance confidence and progression. This years NAPLAN result has been so encouraging and I think it comes from the confidence she’s developed from kinetic. Our son, who loves learning is being consistently challenged and we have watched his learning surpass his year level! It’s so nice to be able to get a handle on how the kids are going with their education.
After being with Kinetic Education for a year, my child has excelled in both English and Math.
Excellent program! After being with Kinetic Education for a year, my child has excelled in both English and Math. Received positive feedbacks from the school commented on how good the persuasive writing work was, I know it’s because of Kinetic Education, because I can see a dramatic difference after just a year of tutoring. This year, my child did very well in NAPLAN, and asked to enrol for the Australian Maths Competition as well as the ICAS. Thank you Kinetic Education team.
We are happy to finally find an online platform that actually delivers.
It’s a great platform. We are happy to finally find an online platform that actually delivers. Kinetic education was the first platform that correctly identified the gaps in my daughter’s learning and fixed it and because of it she showed tremendous improvement in her NAPLAN assessment. Their teacher support is great and the way they have structured the course is excellent.
We couldn't be happier with the support!
Our 15 year old son (who lives with ASD and ADHD) was really struggling with Maths - after his most recent assessment he has now filled in the learning gaps he had from year 4, 5 & 6!!! We couldn't be happier with the support and program and we look forward to him working at a year 9 level!
Great option for at home tutoring
This has been a great option for our busy family- my boys have the spectrum with one being well advanced and the other filling in his English gaps.... both are engaged, progressing and the person approach of the human tutor checking in provides the adjustments that computer only programs could never provide.
This is Perfect for school children
This is so useful and so practical for busy families like me. And also my daughter love this and enjoys. Very practical way for her to understand and her performance increases very well. Tutors are very supportive for my child and myself. Very happy of choosing this.
Self-paced, tailored learning suits busy family
Every week there are reports generated so that I could track the progress of my son. He started to make phone calls to his tutors when he needed help. Having tutor-learner interaction is a great bonus for online learning method.
Great online tutoring option for busy families
We like the fact that the tutoring can be aligned or tailored with what school is teaching in a particular class. Allowing my child to relate work back to class work.
Perfect education support for busy parents!
We are pleased to have the support from Kinetic Education. My daughter is regularly practising maths and English through their system. She is happy and stress free, we are stress free too!
After trialing other math tutoring options, this has been the perfect fit for my children and me (just quietly). From the start, Kinetic met my children where they were at mathematically and focuses on their key learning needs. They have been engaged the whole way through. Kinetic makes it easy to follow and perform tasks in the comfort of your own home. With visual tools to aid learning, online tutors and a point system resulting in rewards, it's a total learning framework. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Kinetic. Give it a go!
My 2 children (year 4 and year 6) have both participated in Kinetic’s tutoring program this year and I’ve been really pleased with their progress. There has been noticeable gains in their grades and confidence in the classroom. The program is simple, easy to fit in around busy lives, and the support you receive is great. Highly recommend.
What every parent wants and needs!!
Fantastic program for my 13 year old son. While there are a few small things that could be changed to help my son individually - the program as a whole has been fantastic. His clarity and confidence has grown immensely- so much so, even other have commented on the change. The program adjusts each week to help my son to go over things he’s missed or not learnt, as well as new content to challenge his skill level. To see our son with learning difficulties excited and determined to do his math and English is what every parent wants and needs!!
Started during covid home schooling and now it is part of the homework routine
The content is very good. The way the kids move forward through it is easy and user friendly. Weekly reports show me how they went with the current content and we chat about any difficult modules. The maths doctor assessment and great at identifying gaps and we then address them with the tutor, I also show their teachers at school. The tutors ring regularly and we discuss progress for each child and reassess and set content based on their abilities. I feel it is very much a partnership between the tutors, parents and students.
Kids loved it and found it helpful
My 4 kids loved kinetic education, the lessons, the games and the rewards. This was a big help during home schooling and the tutors were great if my kids needed help. My youngest got a confidence booster from this platform over the years. I would definitely recommend joining your kids with kinetic education.
We use Kinetic Education to support our home schooling journey. I cannot be happier with their online system and my kids love it.
Kinetic Education really helped with home schooling
We home schooled our son for 15 months, and using the Kinetic Education service we were able to ensure he continued progressing with his maths and english. The Maths Doctor capability meant we were able to identify some early gaps in his maths education, which were then rectified over the year. He went from average Year 3 maths skill, to working on Year 8 skills during that time. The tutoring service was also excellent although we struggled to get our son to use it as much as he should have. Would highly recommend to others.
Professional, polite & effective!!
My children's math has improved so much since employing the services of Kinetic Education. Struggling with school-based teaching methods, they identify the gap in the child's understanding, and then attack the problem from another angle. This allows the child that grasp the concept and also then understand and learn several methods, which is of great benefit to the child, even from a life skills perspective. During COVID (and home schooling) , i also had th opportunity to HEAR some of the instructors on phone calls with my daughter and it was so nice to hear how they dealt and communicated with her. Very patient and treated her like a grown-up rather than a 10yr old. I think she really appreciated that. Thanks so much guys. Keep up the good work!!
Well worth the money spent on tutoring!
Kinetic Education has been fantastic for my Grade 4 and Grade 2 children. My older child was behind in maths since Grade 2 and I only realised this during the Victorian lockdown and my homeschooling of her (much to my horror). Kinetic has slowly built up her confidence in herself, and brought her to the curriculum standard that she should be at. My son was the "freebie" child and he has maintained and now exceeded his level of maths, and is happy to be involved in tutoring as well as it reinforces his confidence in maths. The online format is suitable for kids who are used to screens, and there is enough variety to keep them interested. The explanations seem quite clear and age-appropriate. Any lesson that they have not performed well at is repeated and scaled down a bit so they have a chance to grasp it at another time. The tutors are accessible by phone and guide the kids rather than taking over. My kids are comfortable talking to them independently and as a parent I appreciate the phone calls from the staff who let us know how the kids have performed, and their strengths and weaknesses. One of the best things about Kinetic is that all this tutoring continues at home whilst I am at work so it doesn't require any driving, waiting or being present. Plus the kids are motivated by the vouchers that are offered with the reward points! I highly recommend Kinetic as an affordable (much cheaper than some other options that I researched), extensive and educational support for school kids.
This program has changed our life!
We chose to try Kinetic as we noticed our 9 year old seemed to be struggling with his grade 4 homeschooling (Covid-19 times) and we were worried he wasn’t at the level he should be. We couldn’t get over the change in him in just two weeks. The building blocks test found out what he had missed in previous years and created a specialised program just for him. His confidence has tripled and he is now nailing his regular school work. The points system that Kinetic use to encourage him have worked wonders. He has now started a similar points system at home and does all the household chores without being asked. Adam his tutor checks in regularly to make sure he is getting the most out of the program. Can not recommend this program more highly.
We reached out for something strong & thorough in reading, writing & arithmetic when COVID homeschooling revealed significant gaps in our little angels’ understanding & confidence with the basics - and now they’re beginning to soar!
We joined Kinetic Education to help my homeschooled daughter boost her maths skills. The program was easy to use and had very friendly tutors to talk to over the phone whilst using an interactive whiteboard, whenever we needed them. My daughter was very apprehensive when it came to math but the program found where her gaps in knowledge were and worked on consolidating that base knowledge. Thankfully this program in addition to my daughter's motivation and us working through the national math text books, she went from a C- standard in math to a B+ / A- standard and earned her place at the Grammar school we had our eyes on! We were happy with the service, cost (where else will you find unlimited tutoring and a personalised program for only $26/wk ?!), and outcome... Thanks Kinetic Education :)
The program provided me more confidence from our assigned tutor. If I had not have received a call from Leah, the kids would not have started the course. It was the push and direction they needed. Homeschooling is challenging & the follow up was exactly what was needed. The encouragement from everyone helped me, which reflects on the commitment and integrity of Kinetic.
An essential part of our homeschooling routine
This has taken the guess work and planning for Math and English off my shoulders for our homeschooling. My kids went from having little interest in these areas to now asking to do extra tasks each week! Just signed up their younger sibling who is just as keen to get started.
We homeschooled our 2 eldest children for majority of 2022 and used kinetic as our main math and English units. It was accepted as curriculum and was easy to access even from in the car when we were on adventures. They returned to school and both kids were above where they needed to be and thriving still. Thanks Kinetic!
Lifesaver in our homeschool journey!
Very satisfied with the course content. It has helped my kids become confident learners. My eldest has become independent with her work and my youngest is finally starting to feel like she is a capable learner after many years of low self-esteem with maths & english.
Kinetic Education allowed my son to regain his confidence in learning after disengagement from school. The program was perfect for identifying gaps in previous Learning as well as providing profession A homeschool must as a support for children who struggle with self-confidence and classroom learning.
My son is academically gifted and he doesn't frequently get the extension he needs in the school classroom. Kinetic app has been providing him more opportunities to extend himself. The content is clear as well that he can learn himself without assistance. I like how it tracks the competency and keep repeating until they master the lesson.
My kids find this program is able to offer extension activities that build on the work they are doing at school.
