SCHOOLING IN SOUTH AUSTRALIA
South Australia has approximately 800 government schools which are either Primary or Secondary (High) Schools. A small number of schools have both Primary and Secondary students on the same campus. Hallett Cove School is an example of this, and has one of the largest, single sites in South Australia. The school is divided into:
- Junior/Primary School (age 5-10 years by Western Age)
- Middle School (age 11-14 by Western Age)
- Senior/High School (age 15-18 by Western Age)
Junior School students complete Reception to Year 6 of schooling and then go into the Middle School. After completing Years 7-9 students move into the Senior School to complete Years 10-12. Students are taught from the Australian Curriculum for up until Year 10 and then they follow the South Australia Certificate of Education (SACE) curriculum.
