Can anyone explain to me the difference between NSW schooling for early years and UK please?
I get the age thing and the cut-off dates, but what I don't understand is the curriculum differences.
My understanding is as follows:
Age-wise: prep is similar to nursery / reception
Kindie is similar to y1
y1 similar to y2 and so on
but curriculum-wise, is kindie the same/similar to reception? Is that when they learn to read and write?
We are looking at a short contract of 2/3 years in Sydney, and don't want DS to struggle on our return to UK. Is this likely to be a problem?
