EDUCATION
The education system encloses elementary school, middle school, high school and university.
You can also find vocational training, adult education for those who have more than 25 years.
Our high school is called Batxillerat and it lasts two academic years, from 16 to 18 years old.
If you pass selectivitat, this certificate provides you access to higher education studies. If you
fail this exam you can resist it in September or during the following year.
During Batxillerat you have to keep your notes up-to-date and revise a lot, specially in your
second year. There are many subjects and there are usually a lot of coursework to do as
there is a continuous assessment. Every 3 months our teacher gives us a mark for each
subject and by the end of the second year you get a grade. If you want to succeed and get to
university you must study every day!
