1. Australian high school application for studying abroad
Australian primary and secondary school system is 12 years, with grades 7 to 9 equivalent to junior high schools in China and grades 10 to 12 equivalent to senior high schools in China.
Under normal circumstances, students can only go to Australia to attend high school after completing junior high school education. The Australian government requires that the study time of Australian high schools must exceed 16 months.
Secondary education in Australia inherits the six-year education system in Britain and is divided into public schools and private schools. Public secondary schools are funded by the government, and the management of international students is relatively weak compared with private schools.
Australian high schools adopt the evaluation system, that is, they pass the state exams and combine their usual scores to balance the differences in scores between schools and form college entrance examination results.
Australian high school diploma contains a lot of gold. Students can not only attend the eight famous universities in Australia, but also directly apply for world famous universities in the United States and Britain. Moreover, the tuition fees and entry threshold of private high schools in Australia are much lower than those in the United States and Britain. Therefore, many students and parents choose to go to Australia and New Zealand to attend high schools first, and then apply for prestigious schools in the United States and Britain after graduation.

Second, the advantages of studying in Australian high schools
There is no IELTS requirement
First of all, there was no IELTS when applying for a visa, and then many Australian high schools didn't. If you wait until you finish high school in China and then go to Australia for university, you need IELTS. It is very difficult to take the IELTS test. Attending an Australian high school in advance is equivalent to not having this requirement.
Lay a foundation for university study
When studying in high schools in Australia, students can choose their majors in advance, because high schools in Australia provide many elective courses for students, which can explore their professional expertise and cultivate them. Students can learn what they want to learn in college in the future in high school, laying the foundation for college study. It is much easier to go to an Australian university after finishing high school in Australia than to go to an Australian university after finishing high school in China, because students have adapted to Australian life and are familiar with Australian education methods since they started high school in Australia. Some courses in Australian universities are only available to local high school graduates in Australia, so that college students who have been studying in Australia for a long time have the opportunity to choose more courses.
Save study time
High school graduates want to study in Australian universities, so they have to study for one year to adapt to the study in Australia. However, if they study in Australia in high school, they don't need to study for one year. Undergraduate study in Australia lasts for four years (including one-year preparatory course), while high school students studying in Australia only need three years to study in Australia, saving one year's study time and one year's expenses.
Conducive to the improvement of ability
1. Students studying in senior high schools in Australia can make them no longer depend on their parents, and can do something by themselves to adapt themselves to this environment. In China, parents are around and everything depends on them. Studying abroad can reduce dependence on parents and give students the ability to deal with problems by themselves.
2. Foreign education is different from domestic education. Foreign education is open and can cultivate students' innovative ability.
3. When studying in high school in Australia, you can also meet classmates from different countries, expand your own world and improve your social skills.
