    I'm moving to Perth in just a few weeks.. I'll be going into High school. Just did my JC last summer. Just want to know whats it like!

    Is it harder? easier?

    What subjects?

    And most importantly holidays!?


    And other stuff in general?


    Any help is really appreciated!
    Thanks.

    Im not in school, but my OH is a relief teacher in High School.
    From what i gather its pretty good, she works mostly in a private school. Its massive, like a few thousand students.
    The public system is a little rougher from what i gather. But it depends on where you go, same as anywhere.

    In terms of subjects, they pretty much have the same as home really. Although they dont really do languages. I dont think they do them at all TBH.

    The school year is split into 4 terms. each 10 weeks long. Between them you get 2 weeks holidays, and at christmas you get 6 weeks or something for summer holidays.

    Best of luck!
