    Generally in Australia you finish primary school year 6 (age 12 or 11) and start high school year 7 (age 12 or 13)

      In south Australia you finish primary school year 7 and start high school in year 8 but private high schools in south Australia are now accepting year 7 students so private high schools in south Australia are now year 7 to 12 but public schools are still the in south Australia primary school is year Reception to year 7 high school is year 8 to 12

      Well my school in South Australia is one of the first schools to switch from R-7 to R-6 and a few other schools are doing that now

    I’m from NSW Australia, very different from WA. High school starts Year 7, In Year 10 you get a ROSA (record of school achievement) which in minimum requirement other than being 17 to finish school. Year 11 and 12 is sort of optional you can do traineeship or TAFE if you’re over 17. If you go to public schools Year 11 and 12 have more subjects, plus VET and TVET courses which are TAFE level courses like certificate II or III. I did a certificate III in health services assistance in acute care. This got me a job working in a public hospital right out of high school. Your year 11 (year11 is like the prep or trial year) and 12 subjects are graded in the HSC. You either get a Higher School Certificate or an ATAR. To get and ATAR you need enough units in ATAR subjects. That ATAR is what grade counts for you to get into university. If you just get a Higher School Certificate you can go to TAFE. I did easier school subjects cause I was lazy and got a HSC and not an ATAR, got a scholarship for the Diploma of Nursing (TAFE) which is almost the same job as an RN in Australia ( difference, I’m not in charge and I can only witness not give schedule 8 drugs like morphine). I studied for 18 months and not 3 year and paid a little less. But means I get 1 year off the bachelor of nursing in Uni, and I get paid better while I’m studying. I like Australia because you can choose so many different pathways and there is always another way to get into uni or get qualified without an doing an ATAR in the HSC/uni, bridging courses, TAFE, traineeships, VET and TVET courses.

      I personally find this really similar to Perth actually. My sister took ATAR in high school and our high school also starts in year 7. I think that they’re a select few high schools that start in year 8 here. We also have the optional year 11 and 12. We also do have VET. I honestly feel like the schools she went to were the odd ones out.

    Education is mainly state-run in Australia so a lot of what you're describing only applies to WA. Here in VIC you start primary school at 5 in Prep (=reception) and finish at 12 in Grade 6. Also, you can be either 17 or 18 when you finish high school, it just depends what month you're born and what state you're in (assuming you don't drop out after year 10, which is also possible here, just like in the UK). The name of the final two years and corresponding exams also varies by state, in VIC it is the VCE. Also Psychology and Legal Studies are available at VCE level in Victoria and according to this (senior-secondary.scsa.wa.edu.au/syllabus-and-support-materials/humanities-and-social-sciences) are also available in WA. If you went to a small Catholic school, they might not have the same range of subjects as a larger school.
    Honestly, calling this video "difference between British and Australian schools" when you had a very particular experience at a private school in WA and have done absolutely no research into how things work anywhere else is really misleading.

    State school students are quite smart. Out of the 100 people that were in my Year 12 cohort, over half were getting As and Bs in most subjects

    I’m 16, and half way through year 11. My family is planning on moving to the Gold Coast at some point and we were wondering how it would work to move there during this year, or at the end of it? Because I have applied to colleges and some grammar 6th forms in England just in case we don’t end up going until university.

    your video was so helpful it's kind of help me about moving to Australia all the little things that you think is not important or important I think we just concentrate on living out there and enjoying the sunshine when there's more to Australia than just the sun think realistically Australia is overpriced yes to have a few jobs but there education is more higher than ours which I've noticed and the fact that you have to wear school uniform after the age of 16 that is depressing

    • @akjvoksn

      I just wanted to say that the schools that she went to were probably the odd ones out. What I mean by that is even though I live in WA, like where she lived, we have Kindy, Pre-Primary then year 1-6. Then we have in high school year 7-12. You’re allowed to drop out after year 10. You start kindy when you’re 3 or 4. It really depends on when you were born. If you were born before I think it was July 15, you start the school year when you’re 3. So you need to be 4 by December 31 for the first group. Anybody born after July 15 start school when they’re 4 and they need to be 5 by December 31.

    A posh (by Australian standards) private school in the wealthy part of Perth in Australia is atypical. Most students will have university educated parents and the average person in the suburb is a $US multi-millionaire. This is the opposite of schools in outer suburbs.

      As I think I said in the video, this is obviously just my own personal experiences and not indicative of every experience.

      @SayHelloExpatAdvice  5 лет назад

      In WA you can wear your own clothes in some public schools, but most still enforce a uniform. I went to a private school so we had to wear a uniform.

    You need to check your facts, schooling is different across all of Australia, the schooling your talking about is for Western Australia only
