Hello!

Can anyone tell me about the Australian school system and it’s leaving exams? I grew up with “O” levels and “A” levels and am in the dark when it comes to what is expected of children. (I’ve been told the school sets its own year 10 exams but this doesn’t sound right and there is no national standard leaving exam until year 12). Help! Thanks

  • It was TAEs when I finished year 11 and 12. It’s so hard to keep up. And just when you think you’ve got it, you move interstate and it’s completely different. Good luck on your search for answers
