My 2025 school report only has 1 B in music and the rest are A's, I also currently study agriculture and I have an A in it as well, so I think that's pretty good for Ruse. However, my 2024 reports aren't as good (a few more b's).
My 2024 NAPLAN is all in the exceeding bracket with grammar & punctuation and numeracy being in the triangle.
My 2022 NAPLAN is good except that my writing is below the national average in it.
