Canadian secondary schools choose public or private schools.

In order to make children adapt to studying abroad earlier, many parents send their children abroad to attend middle schools. There are public and private secondary schools in Canada. How to choose these two types of middle schools? Let's take a look at the introduction of!

First, introduce public high schools.

Public high schools are funded by the government. Canadian citizens can enter the school free of charge, but international students have to pay tuition fees. The annual tuition and living expenses are estimated to be about 65,438+02-65,438+05,000 RMB. Because it is run by the government, there is no obvious difference in the overall level of teachers. In the public education system, only some schools can recruit international students. Schools do not provide accommodation, and students need to live in host families.

In public high schools, the proportion of international students is generally controlled within 65,438+00%, which provides students with a very good language learning environment, and students can deeply understand and experience the local culture.

Public high schools are relatively large in scale, with perfect infrastructure and rich courses. International students and local students are treated equally in their studies, so the course is relatively challenging for international students, and the gold content of the diploma is relatively high. Because some local students are more inclined to junior college, they are slightly inclined to practice in curriculum arrangement.

Public schools finish school early and have plenty of spare time, so they can arrange their own learning content, but it may have some influence on students with poor self-discipline. If students have excellent academic performance and strong self-care ability, choosing public high schools can fully enjoy the advantages of typical western education.

Second, introduce private high schools.

Private schools are mostly invested by private individuals or private institutions, directly operated and managed by independent school boards, and supervised and managed by the education department of the provincial government in the field of education.

Private schools can be divided into three categories:

1. Private boarding school (also known as private aristocratic school);

2. Private day schools (also known as private elite schools);

3. Private international schools. The tuition fees of private high schools are relatively high, and the annual tuition and living expenses are generally around 200,000-250,000 RMB, while the top private boarding or day high schools can even reach 300,000-350,000 RMB.

Private high schools attach great importance to the quality of education and enrollment rate, and the main goal is to train students to enter first-class universities. Small classes are often used to teach so that every student can get the teacher's attention. Therefore, private schools can achieve a higher quality of teaching, cultivate high-quality students, and the university enrollment rate is very high.

Third, matters needing attention in applying for studying in Canadian high schools

Point 1: Foreign language and self-care ability are the foundation.

Studying in Canada requires a certain English foundation to meet the needs of studying and living in Canada. Studying in Canada is the beginning of students' independent growth. Independent living ability, learning adaptability, language ability and mental maturity are the necessary conditions to ensure the effect of studying abroad in high school.

Point 2: Application time is the key.

Canadian public high schools generally start in February and September every year. Although the application deadline for courses starting in September is usually May every year, the places in the best middle schools will soon be full, so you should apply to the ideal school as soon as possible. The acceptance period of Canadian public high school applications generally ranges from 2 weeks 1 month. Although the term of private high schools is more flexible, there are places for good private high schools. Apply for early admission.

Point 3: Course selection is the most important.

For students who have decided to study in Canada, it is very important to choose courses. Students must complete 30 credits in four years before they can get a high school diploma. Students with insufficient credits need to have enough credits to get a high school diploma.

Fourth, the advantages of Canadian secondary schools.

First-class education level

There is no doubt that Canada has a world-class education level. According to the survey of American Weekly, the quality of education in Canada ranks second in the world. High schools in Canada are divided into public high schools and private high schools. Public high schools are funded by the government, strictly control the quality of education and have perfect teaching facilities. Private high schools are invested and built by private individuals or private enterprises, focusing on elite education.

Security Environment

Canada is vast and sparsely populated, rich in products, with a very high social environment and a high safety factor. Canada is an immigrant country, where the cultures of various ethnic groups collide and develop together. Society is extremely inclusive, not exclusive, but encourages and welcomes the integration of foreign cultures.

cut the cost

The cost of studying abroad in Canadian public middle schools is about 1.2-0.2 million a year (data given by the embassy). The cost of studying abroad in ordinary private middle schools is similar to that in public middle schools, but aristocratic middle schools are relatively expensive, about 300,000-350,000. Compared with other western countries, the overall data shows that the cost of studying in high schools in Canada is still very cost-effective.

A stepping stone to college.

Public middle schools in Canada are funded by the government and under the jurisdiction of the education bureaus, and the teaching quality is strictly controlled. The students in the school are mainly local students, with a good language environment, and the university admission rate can reach over 85%. Private secondary schools are privately invested, and the purpose of establishing schools is to let students enter universities. There are many international students who can be exposed to many cultures, and the university admission rate can reach 100%.
