The Australian secondary education comprises a 5-year or 6-year curriculum, i.e. Year 7-12 in Australian Capital Territory, New South Wales, Victoria, and Tasmania; and Year 8-12 in Queensland, South Australia, Western Australia, and Northern Territory. Schools in Australia can be classified into two broad categories namely Government or Private schools, with some being Private Boarding schools. Students can choose local Year 11-12 school curriculum or International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma to gain university entry qualifications. In addition, students can choose vocational education programs offered by various institutions.

In Year 11-12 (senior school education), an extensive selection of subjects are available to cater for a varied cohort of students. A combination of arts/humanities and mathematics/science-based subjects can be selected in order to enhance students' personal and career development. University admission is based on university entrance score gained in the Year 12 program through continuous school assessment and matriculation (except in Queensland).

While taking the advantage of the well equipped facilities in the Australian schools, international students are also encouraged to be fully integrated members of the school community while friendship with local students is being fostered. It provides an excellent opportunity in learning the local Australian culture, sharpening academic and English skills, and enhancing students' moral development by participating actively in co-curricula life.
