How do children attend Australian schools after immigrating to Australia?

# Australian Immigrants # Introduce how children attend Australian schools after immigrating to Australia. What if the child can't speak English before landing in Australia? Children's English is not good, how can parents find schools for their children? I believe these problems are the concern of many parents who plan to immigrate to Australia. This paper evaluates the problems related to Australian education and children's education.

I. Introduction to the Australian Education System

In Australia, all four-year-olds can go to kindergarten. Pre-school classes in kindergartens help children develop well in physical, emotional and social aspects before they formally enter school.

In Australia, children must start school at the age of five and complete grade 10. After 10 grade, you must participate in full-time education, training or employment, or participate in these comprehensive activities (at least 25 hours per week) until you complete 12 grade or reach 17 years old.

Generally speaking, Australian children go to primary school until they are 12 and 13 years old, and then go to secondary school until they are 17 and 18 years old. Some senior high schools in Australia only enroll students in grades 1 1 and 12 to prepare for the graduation examination.

2. How do new immigrants from Australia find schools for their children?

After immigrating to Australia, new immigrants can send their children to public schools or non-public schools. If you want to find a school in your area, you can look it up in the "White Pages" phone book of the Australian website under the "Schools" column.

Australian public schools provide free education. However, most schools need small fees or voluntary donations to strengthen their education and sports programs. Additional teaching materials or services need to be provided by parents, or parents pay the school and the school provides them. Parents may need to buy pencils, ballpoint pens, books and school uniforms for their children (if necessary).

Students holding temporary visas in Australia may have to pay full tuition fees. You must check the details with the school alone.

Private schools in Australia charge fees, and they may have religious backgrounds or specific educational purposes. Parents who want to know about private education, please make an appointment with the relevant private education management institutions or contact the selected schools directly.

If you need care before or after class or school holiday plans, please check these plans with the selected school. These projects are designed for you to look after your children at work.

3. What about school-age children who can't speak English?

In most states and regions of Australia, children of new immigrants who can't speak English can directly attend English language schools and English language centers, which provide intensive English courses specially designed for children. These schools are located in urban areas and some big towns. For more information about English language courses for school-age children, please check with your nearest public school.

ESL-NA enables qualified new immigrant students to learn English in Catholic and independent primary and secondary schools.

Parents and caregivers who have limited English ability or can't speak English can ask the school to arrange an interpreter when discussing matters related to their children at school. They can also use the translation service of the Australian Immigration Bureau (TIS National) to contact the school.

4. How do new immigrants from Australia enroll their children?

If you want your child to go to school, please call or go to school in person. You will need to bring your visa or entry documents, proof of your child's birth date, and any documents related to their previous education (including transcripts). You may also need to show your proof of immunization.

Children of new immigrants from Australia go to college.

Australian universities are among the best in the world. Undergraduate degree courses take three years, but there are also dual-degree and postgraduate courses, which take a long time to complete. Some courses have the choice of distance learning and part-time learning. Universities can also offer short-term career development courses.

Before going to college, students with limited English proficiency should enroll in English courses. This will help to ensure that their English level is enough to meet the requirements of the university.

For information about admission and courses, please contact the university separately or visit the website of the university. The website for studying in Australia provides practical information about studying in Australia in non-English languages.

College course fees can include "prepaid" tuition fees or fees paid after completing the degree (higher education contribution plan, also known as HECS), miscellaneous fees, books, accommodation and general living expenses. Students should also know that if they drop out of college, they will still owe HECS debts.
