Education
There is high value on education within Australian society, hence why state and federal governments invest heavily on future generations.
The Australian education system is broadly structured as follows:
1 – Primary school: seven or eight years, starting at Foundation (also called kindergarten/preparatory/pre-school) through to Year 6 or 7
2 – Secondary school: four years from Years 7 or 8 to 10
3 – Senior secondary school: two years from Years 11 to 12
4 – Tertiary education: includes higher education and vocational education and training (VET)
