- Selective High School Test in English language, Written Expression,
Mathematics and General Ability
- Primary school assessments of student performance in
English, Mathematics and Writing

Principals are required to provide school marks for English and Mathematics based on the student's performance in Years 5 and 6. Any copies of supporting evidence to show that students are performing academically at a gifted level or possess gifted and talented characteristics may also be attached. This includes excellent performance in the following:
- University of NSW competitions in Mathematics, English and Science

- Other IQ Tests

Other evidence which may be considered includes
- Any outstanding academic awards gained in Year 5
