~Rosey~ Posted February 16, 2007 Report Posted February 16, 2007 Ours is simple Preschool (ages 3 - 5) Primary School (Kindergarten - Year 6) High school - Juniors (Year 7 - 10) Seniors (Year 11 - 12)
Pierced Musie Posted February 16, 2007 Report Posted February 16, 2007 High school for me was Year 7 - 11, with Year 12 & 13 being A-Levels.
Marieh Posted February 17, 2007 Report Posted February 17, 2007 I guess it could be better that we don't have to apply for all three years anymore, Merc, but on the other hand it was a lot easier if you had made a bad choice and wanted to change courses with the old system. It's literally impossible now unless you want to take the year over again. You lock a lot the when you apply the first time now too, by choosing ST I'm down to three choices (five with a counsellor willing to help you change) but after this round of applying I will have locked the next two years to one PF. And then in a few weeks we will get to know the FPFs and VPFs, and choose them. We have to choose both VPFs and FPFs for both Vg2 and Vg3 now, and as the FPFs are already set when you apply for ST in junior high I will have the next two years all set and locked for any changes within a few weeks. I'm scared. You're lucky that you have a counsellor, ours live in Honningsvåg, and we are in BERLEVÅG, *grr* that's something I'm going to complain on. When we were in Honningsvåg all the counselling we got was "come here to us, we have the best school, got teatcher" etc etc and to me going there is no option because it's to far away and I don't want to spend every weekend and school because I can't afford to go home. Tried talking to our "old" counsellor on primary school (grunnskolen) but she nearly has any free time because of year 10 and it freaks me out. And then yesterday I heard that people have applyed for school AND applyed for apartment(s). Oooh, one good thing I found out, it's only VG1 that has to apply for the school closest
