Which countries are recommended for primary school students to study abroad?

In the past, many people’s impression of studying abroad was to go abroad for university or further study. Now, more and more people choose to let their children go abroad and study abroad in middle school, primary school, or even kindergarten. As people's living standards continue to improve, more and more parents are sending their children to primary and secondary schools abroad. The younger age group studying abroad has become a new trend. The number of Chinese students studying abroad has increased steadily in the past ten years. Now I will take you to know which countries are recommended for primary school students to study abroad. 1. Recommended countries for primary school students to study abroad

Singapore

Singapore is not far from China and is the first choice for studying abroad in Asia. International students are accepted from kindergarten to university, and mothers can apply for accompanying visas. In the future, children can be officially recognized to take O-level and A-level examinations, becoming a springboard for studying in Europe and the United States. Low cost and high performance-price ratio.

Primary education in New Zealand starts from grade one to grade eight. Most of the learning in grade seven and grade eight is completed separately in primary school and primary school. Basically, all schools use English teaching, while some schools use Maori language teaching. For grades 1-6, Year 5-10 years old, Year 7 years old is generally 11 years old, and Year 8 years old is generally 12 years old. Students choose schools in the district based on the principle of going to school nearby.

According to reports, New Zealand begins accepting international students from the fifth grade of primary school. According to regulations, children under 13 years old need to be accompanied by compulsory companions, and those aged 10-18 can choose to be accompanied. New Zealand prohibits international students under the age of 10 from living alone and must be accompanied by their parents.

A companion visa can be renewed in New Zealand until the child turns 18. New Zealand will change its visa rules to allow parents to live in New Zealand for one year at a time, but not work and without national healthcare qualifications. There are also the following precautions:

1. The applicant must be the immediate family member of the ward (parents, grandparents, grandparents);

2. The students the applicant will accompany must Applicants are taking courses below Form 7. Primary school students aged 11 to 13, who are not accompanied by their parents, must obtain special approval from the Ministry of Education. Existing boarding schools are exempt.

In New Zealand, the Education Evaluation Office has evaluated most public schools (including early childhood education, primary school, junior high school, and high school). The evaluation report is published online, and relevant school information can be searched after entering the corresponding area.

In the evaluation report of each school, the school's situation is introduced in detail, including the number of students, male to female ratio, racial ratio, school advantages, areas for improvement and their next plan.

One of the scores (1-10, with 10 being the highest) is a score on the economic status of residents in the area where the school is located. Although public schools have financial support from the government, their development is far from sufficient. If the school gets more sponsorship, it will be beneficial to the construction of school facilities. Generally, the middle class pays more attention to education, so the learning atmosphere for students is relatively good.

Enrollment of local children only requires monthly bank statements or proof of telecommunications, electricity, gas, etc. The name of any guardian can be used as evidence. These certificates have the same effect as the lease contract. Even if you just moved into a newly rented house today, you can enter the school immediately as long as you have a rental contract tomorrow.

The school here is divided into 4 semesters every year. Usually the first semester is from early February to mid-April, followed by a 2-week vacation; the second semester is from the end of April to the end of June, followed by a 2-week vacation; The third semester is from mid-July to mid-September. After a 2-week break, the fourth semester begins. The fourth semester lasts until the end of Christmas.

The Christmas holiday is the beginning of the summer vacation. You can take about two months of vacation until the beginning of the new semester in early February. These holiday arrangements will be announced on the Ministry of Education website one year in advance to facilitate parents' travel arrangements. 2. Application conditions
