The Springfield Anglican College at a glance

TSAC also offers General Excellence (Years 7 to 9 and Years 10 to 12), Creative Arts, Sport and Church scholarships, none of which need the EduTest. Several are accepted year-round. Scholarships start from Year 7; there are none for primary.

Which test does TSAC use?

TSAC uses the EduTest academic test. Papers are marked by EduTest, which returns a ranking to the college, and families receive a personal results sheet by email.

EduTest has five sections: verbal reasoning, numerical reasoning, reading comprehension and mathematics (30 minutes each, multiple choice), plus a 15-minute written expression task with no separate planning time. Results are compared with students in the same year level nationally.

You register through the EduTest link on the school's website. Use the same email address for every EduTest registration, so results can be matched and, where schools take part, transferred between schools in the same testing cycle.

What else counts

• EduTest academic test results
• School reports and NAPLAN results
• Academic achievements and awards
• An enrolment application ($100, non-refundable)

How to prepare

• Start about three months out. For a February test, that means November.
• Sit one full timed practice test in the right format to find the weakest section.
• Practise writing under time, with feedback on one thing at a time. Writing is the section families find hardest to judge at home.
• Build reading stamina with a mix of fiction, non-fiction and poetry, and talk about what writers imply, not just what happens.
• Keep the last week light. Familiarity and rest matter more than cramming.

Practice for the EduTest scholarship test

Our EduTest-format mock exams cover all five sections under timed conditions, with worked explanations, a skill breakdown and written expression marked by a human teacher.

These are independent practice materials, not official test papers, and they don't predict scholarship outcomes.
