Home schooled Kids do better in tests

Notes:

             Home schooled kids do better in NAPLAN test.
             Home schooled kids are rising according to data check.
            The results shows parents are spending more time at home to           teach their kids.
            kids who are in year 3,5,7 and 9 can only sit for NAPLAN               test.
           The research noted home school students who sit for test did             good but the number of students was not enough for research.
       
       Summery
      The research is about NAPLAN test where home school                   students and  mainstream  students are compared to produce a         result. The result shows, home school students did better in test       but only 10 percent of home school students  attended the test           so some of the researcher do not agree with the result. However       parents of home school students are focusing on their kids               education which can be a big contribution in the field of                  Australian education system in near future.
