Almost all of these universities and technical colleges are government public schools (except for one private university). Their education system is under the jurisdiction of the state government where they are located. Therefore, the administrative system varies slightly from state to state, but basically the quality of education is controlled and managed by the Australian federal government. Therefore, each school can maintain an average but high quality of education. The academic diplomas of each school are mutually recognized by the states and are universally accepted throughout the country. Australian academic qualifications are widely recognized by countries around the world, including our country.

The Australian education system is divided into five parts, which are:

3. English tutoring schools (ELICOS) that provide English tutoring courses for overseas students;

4. Private schools that offer business, hotel management, and aviation courses; < /p>

5. Primary schools and middle schools.
