GCSE's

[Guest jonathan]

We are thinking of applying for Austrailia, the problem is that our daughter sits her GCSE exams this summer. Could anyone tell me if these qualifications will be recognised in Oz, or will she have to go back 1 or 2 years to sit the Oz exams.

Any info would be greatly appreciated.

I think it will depend on what she wants to do. If she is carrying on with her schooling she can take the Australian version of A Levels at 18 so that way it wont matter about her having uk qualifications as she will also have an Aussie one.

Hope this makes sense!!!
