Destinazione

Classic High School is the traditional high school program that most students choose. This is the perfect choice for students who want a genuine exchange experience. We match you with a carefully selected host family and high school in Australia. You can be placed in a bustling big city, charming coastal town, or on the countryside close to the nature. This is the program for you that are open-minded, and excited to try new things. It doesn’t matter which of our exchange programs in Australia you choose, you will be staying with a caring Australian host family. Your host family will introduce you and give you a close insight into the Australian culture.

All our families look different – some live in the city or on the countryside, others by the coast, some have children, others do not. What they all have in common is that they are excited about welcoming you into their home and their Aussie lives.

Students must complete at least 12 units of preliminary courses (Year 11) and 10 units of HSC courses (Year 12), including English. Most HSC courses are worth 2 units each. Students typically study a minimum of six subjects in Year 11 and continue with five of these subjects in Year 12.
