What's New
NAPLAN student data now available
Schools can now access student data in the online national assessment platform.
Final tasks to prepare for NAPLAN include:
Introducing NESA Identity (NESA ID)
On Monday 9 March NESA Identity (NESA ID) will be introduced as a new, secure way for teachers to sign in to eTAMS and NESA Learning.
From 9 March, teachers will be required to sign in using their email address instead of their 6 digit NESA account number.
eTAMS will be unavailable between 5pm Thursday 5 March and 8am Monday 9 March to prepare for NESA ID.
What do you need to do?
If you have already updated your NESA ID email address to a personal email address, your eTAMS profile has been automatically migrated to NESA ID.
Sign in to eTAMS to set up a password. The next time you sign in, you must set up 2-step verification to keep your account secure.
If you have not updated your NESA ID email address to a personal email address, you will need to:
Attempt to sign in to eTAMS. Locate your eTAMS account using your name, date of birth, and either the email address listed in your eTAMS account or your mobile number.
Confirm the best email address and mobile number for your NESA ID.
The next time you sign in to eTAMS, you must set up 2-step verification to keep your account secure.
