Australian Education System
 
The Australian education system is broadly divided into:
 
  • University
    is the highest level of study in Australia. There are 41 universities in total - 38 public (government funded) and three private. You can study at the undergraduate level (Bachelor degree) or postgraduate level (Graduate Certificate, Diploma, Masters, PhD).
  • Vocational
    institutions are closely linked with industry, making courses very practical and skill-based. Vocational courses are provided at both the government-funded Technical and Further Education (TAFE) institutes and at private institutions. Many courses provide advanced standing into university degrees.
  • School
    is compulsory for children aged between 6 and 15, with matriculation exams for university generally at 18 years old. Australian schools are public (government) and private (religious or independent).
  • English language
    courses are undertaken for study, travel, immigration or business purposes. There are around 100 private English language centres in Australia. Some universities and TAFE institutes also offer English language courses.
