Presentation

Education in Canada

The school system of Canada is very much like the one in the USA, but there are certain differences.

Education in Canada is general and compulsory for children from 6 to 16 years old, and in some provinces — to 14. It is within the competence of the local authorities, and therefore it may differ from province to province. For example, Newfoundland has an 11-grade system. Some other provinces have 12-grade systems, and Ontario has even a 13-grade system. Grades 1—6 are usually elementary schools, and grades 7—12 are secondary schools.

In some provinces there is a kindergarten year before the first grade. Elementary education is general and basic, but in the junior high school years the students can select some courses. There are different types of schools in the country: state or public schools, special and private. Compulsory education is free.

Pupils read and introduce with educational system in Canada.
