Education in Canada
The school system of Canada is very similar to the US system, but there are some differences. Education in Canada is general and compulsory for children from 6 to 16 years, and in some provinces – up to 14 years. It is in the department of local authorities, and therefore can vary in each province. For example, Newfoundland has an 11-year education system. In some other provinces – a 12-year system, and in Ontario even a 13-year system. 1 – 6 classes is an elementary school, 7 – 12 classes is a secondary school.
In some provinces, before the first class there is a year in kindergarten. Primary education is basic and general, but in middle school students can choose some subjects themselves. Most secondary schools have programs for all students. Some of them prepare students for continuing their studies at universities. Professional schools are separate institutions for those who are not going to continue their education after high school. There are also commercial schools.
In some provinces, there are private kindergartens and nurseries for preschool children. There are also Roman Catholic schools and private schools in some provinces. In most provinces, private schools receive public assistance. Canadian universities are accepted after high school with special subjects. To obtain a diploma in law, medicine, dentistry or engineering, 3 to 4 years of study are required.
Tuition fees in universities vary from province to province. In all provinces there are also public institutions of a non-university type. These are regional colleges, institutes of technology, institutes of applied art, agricultural technology colleges and others. The criteria for admission to these institutions are less strict.
