further education

Hello Everyone.
Can anyone give me any usefull advice regarding my 17 year old sons further education when we arrive in Oz, eg do the schools / colleges and universities run on a similar system as the UK.
He will hopefully have finished his A levels by the time we go and we were wondering what the opportunities are like for University etc, especially around Brisbane.
Also if anyone has any info relating to term fees for Uni / college it would be appreciated.

Thanks

Dave
