In high school (9-12) there is much more study and homework. However, a definite plus is the availability of an individual curriculum. Children have a certain number of compulsory subjects (18 out of 30), the rest they study based on their interests and the specialization that they will study at universities. In addition, schools have "advisors" who help determine the profession and choice of university.
