How is school life in Canada?

Question

I'm going to move there with my family pretty soon and I'm curious about life (school life and other things) there. I'm 15 and currently living in the Philippines.

Answer 1

schools are just about like any other school in canada, though they vary.

Answer 2

you'll be in either grade 9 or 10. It varies from province to province, but generally it's a pretty good system

Answer 3

Whether it is public or private may contribute to quality of life. Neighbourhood will also impact. Canada is a HUGE country. As far as grade, it depends on your qualifications.

Answer 4

School in canada are great for free educations and many programs outside of school that can help you like "Marches of Dimes" a program to understand, and people that can relate to your problems.. We'd are very mix culture and we are very accepting and understanding they're are same rare rude person but you'd get that anywhere just remember dont let anyone get to you just be yourself. You'll be fine..

Grade.. depending on your birthday.. if it in the beginning of the year "Jan & July you're probley be in grade 11, and if you were in later of the year Aug & Dec grade 10.

Answer 5

The grade you enter will be based off your existing education. I know a 20 y/o in grade 12 because the school equivalent in Spain was different from here. Generally 15 y/o are in grade 9/10.

Public schools are VERY good here. Private schools are just expensive, and at the highschool level there is no real benefit to them.

It depends on the neighbourhood the school is in. You will find by highschool people are more understanding and respectful - ESPECIALLY if you take the Academic stream courses.
