NSW OC Test case studies

The Opportunity Class Placement Test is the assessment used for entry to opportunity classes in New South Wales government schools, and this page is an independent study resource for families preparing for it. It is written for parents and carers of primary-school children who are considering an opportunity class placement, and for the students themselves. Because the official NSW Department of Education pages for opportunity classes and for the placement test both returned a 404 (page not found) error when retrieved on 2 November 2026, this page cannot state verified details such as the number of questions, the time limit, the scoring method, any fee, the retake policy, or the weighting of each section. The four study areas shown here - Reading, Mathematical Reasoning, Thinking Skills and Writing - are provisional and are split evenly at 25 per cent each; they are drawn from general knowledge rather than from the source and must be replaced once an accessible official source is available. The NSW OC Test case studies are 5 cases and about 1,963 words.
