NAPFA Calculator: Grades, Points and Awards

What NAPFA grade and award will you get?

Each station is graded A to E on your own age and sex row, worth 5 points down to 1, and the award depends on both the total and your lowest grade. Pick your school level and age, enter your six results, and the calculator gives the grade at each station, how far each is from the next grade, your total out of 30 and your award.

The grades come from MOE's NAPFA standards tables: the secondary table as Dunman Secondary School publishes it, for ages 12 to 24, and the primary tables St. Hilda's Primary School publishes, for ages 9 to 13, both checked 7 November 2026.

The example above, a boy of 16 with 38 sit-ups, a 230cm jump, a 41cm reach, 6 pull-ups, a 10.3 second shuttle run and an 11:20 run, scores 20 points and Silver, 1 point short of Gold.

What do you need for NAPFA Gold, Silver and Bronze?

Gold needs at least a C at all six stations and 21 points or more. Silver needs at least a D everywhere and 15 points, and Bronze at least an E everywhere and 6 points. Those are the award requirements printed in the MOE secondary table and on St. Hilda's awards slide, checked 7 November 2026.

Both rules apply at once. Six C grades make only 18 points, which is Silver, so Gold also needs 3 spare points, such as three B grades. Five A grades and one D make 27 points but only Silver, because the D breaks the C floor. Fix the weakest station first.

How is the NAPFA test scored?

Each of the six results is read against your age and sex row and graded A for 5 points down to E for 1. A result worse than the E band is an F, worth 0, and an F rules out every award. The most anyone can score is 30. Which pull-up you do and how far you run depend on your age, sex and school level.

Ages 12 and 13 have two rows. A Primary 6 pupil is graded on the primary table with the 1.6km, and a secondary student on the secondary table with the 2.4km. The five field stations have the same bands on both tables.

Some pre-university boys who are enlisting into NS take push-ups in place of pull-ups. This calculator does not grade that station, and NAPFA pull-ups and sit-ups explains the change.

What are the NAPFA standards for primary school?

For a boy of 12 on the primary table, a C needs 32 sit-ups, 16 inclined pull-ups and a 1.6km in 10:40 or faster. For a girl of 12 it is 21 sit-ups, 10 inclined pull-ups and 12:00. Pick your child's row below.

Primary 4 pupils are usually on the 9 to 11 rows and Primary 6 pupils on the 11 to 13 rows. A Primary 5 pupil is tested next in Primary 6, so read the row for the age they will be then. The parent's guide, with a six-week plan, is NAPFA test for primary school.

What are the NAPFA standards for secondary school and pre-U?

For a boy of 16, a C needs 37 sit-ups, 5 pull-ups, a 10.5 second shuttle run and a 2.4km in 12:20 or faster. For a girl of 16 it is 26 sit-ups, 11 inclined pull-ups, 11.8 seconds and 16:00.

Pick your row below. Boys from 15 do full pull-ups, and the table's last rows cover ages 20 to 24. A second copy of the same MOE table, on an MOE school's PE site, matches it for ages 12 to 19.

Every band starts one rep, centimetre, tenth or second after the band below it ends, so these five cut-offs are the whole table. The printed ranges for each station, with technique and training, are on the station pages: sit and reach, standing broad jump, shuttle run and pull-ups and sit-ups. The 2.4km grades for ages 12 to 18 are also in the 2.4km run guide.

Which NAPFA station should you train first?

Any station below the floor of the award you want, because no total makes up for it. After that, the station closest to its next grade in the calculator.

A gap of a few centimetres in the sit and reach or a few tenths in the shuttle run usually closes sooner than a gap in pull-ups or the run. Change one result at a time in the calculator to see which gain lifts the award. The six stations and an eight-week block are in the NAPFA test guide.
