Australia Education System - Pre-school and beyond!

chiffonscarf

Hello, i would really like to know if education is offered free for toddlers and high schoolers in public schools? Godwilling I will be holding a visa 190 ACT SS. Looking forward to hear from co-parents. Godbless!

@chiffonscarf Hi, our daughter is on her primary years, she's studying in a public school and we just need to pay $200+ for a year for her books,notebooks and etc. 🙂

@Cassey Great to hear, thanks sa reply. Hope it would be a similar system in ACT ( Canberra) for both primary and secondary 🙂

My daughter just turned 17 last week and is currently attending grade 11 in the Philippines. When we migrate to Australia on Feb 2018, will she be attending grade 11 or 12? Thanks in advance.

@jangjaca medyo alanganin ang dating nyo kung ipasok nyo sa Y12 agad.. nag start na kasi Y12 october this year and will end next year Sept.. I really don't suggest na mag start agad sya ng Y12.. kasi baka mabigla sya at maapektuhan pa yung HSC and ATAR nya..

by the way.. I have a daughter who just finished Y12 last month.. . medyo kakaiba ang Y12 due to additional pressure/stress due to HSC... especially if you are shooting to get a high ATAR para makapasok sa course na gusto mo sa uni

@multitasking actually mas gusto namin sya ipasok sa grade 11 but I read somewhere na ang schooling sa aus ay base sa age kaya medyo nag worry ako.

Ok lng pla sya matanggap sa grade 11 khit 17 n sya ngaun?

I thought start ng school year is end of January. Iba pla para sa grades 11 and 12?

Salamat po sa pagsagot. Very informative.

@jangjaca .. tingin ko ala naman problem kahit na 17 sya.. i think pag dating nyo dito.. din rin i recommend ng school na ipasok da Y12 agad....

Saan nyo balak mag stay?

jangjaca

Thanks ulit @multitasking. Sa ngayon, I'm leaning towards Sydney pero d ko p alam kung saang suburb.

Cassey

@jangjaca Tatanungin nila sa school kung ano yung current grade niya, just let them know whatever Year level na you prefer her to be in and your other concerns. Considerate naman sila.

jangjaca

@cassey maraming salamat po sa additional info.

Cassey

@jangjaca Walang anuman, 🙂

@jangjaca i also would suggest na medyo mag research na rin kayo about HSC subject selection, ATAR and Uni Admission..para pag kinausap nyo school.. may idea na kayo kahit papaano sa mga ito..

jangjaca

@multitasking thanks po ulit sa suggestion nyo. wala pa talaga ako idea sa mga yan, need na mag research.

Hi. Me idea po kayo if anong year sa school pag ang age are 10, 8 and 6? Thanks po.

@abby_bm

10yr old (before or on April) - years 4/5

8yr old (before or on April) - years 2/3

6yr old (before or on April) - year 1/2

generally, age ang basehan, but dont be surprised if the school moved them to different year levels.

aside from age, may assessment din ang bata based on their learning capacity, social maturity, english proficiency etc etc.

@heycoachputmein thank you po. Ask ko na din if kelan ang start ng school year and ano requirements.

heycoachputmein

Generally, school year starts either last week of Jan (after ng long weekend ng australia day) or 1st week of feb.

dahil State govt ang may hawak ng local school systems, depende pa rin sa regulation ng state, minsan may maaga , minsan may huli

also, depende rin kung private or public yung school/institution.

Requirements? as usual documents ng pag eenrol ng bata.

siguro ang 'uncommon' documents na wala karamihan sa mga enrollees ay yung

vaccination history (importante yan)

abby_bm

@heycoachputmein thanks so much. Ask ko din if nirerequire ba na kelangan 3 bedroom plus if me 4 kids? Thanks.

jangjaca

@heycoachputmein yun po bang vaccination history kelangan pa din for admission sa year 11?
