Hi, he should still be in Year 9 as he turns 14 within that year. Year 9 is for those born between Jan 93 to Dec 93. What can make it confusing is that some schools hold some pupils back and so they are in the year below what they should be. That will not be a problem for your son I'm sure :)

Good luck with your move

In Brisbane it's 'age appropriate'. The school year is the same as Perth, Jan - Dec, just looking on the net.
