In Australia, the rules about leaving school can vary by state or territory. Generally, students must attend school until they are 17 years old, or until they complete Year 10 (or its equivalent). However, some states allow students to leave school at 15 if they secure a full-time job or if they are involved in other approved activities, like apprenticeships or vocational training.
It’s important to check the specific laws in your state or territory, as they may have different requirements regarding school leaving age and the conditions under which a student may leave. If you’re considering this option, it’s a good idea to talk to a school counselor or check your local education authority’s guidelines for the most accurate information.
