Here in QLD, the general rule is: Students are eligible to enter the first year of secondary school, Year 8, after completing seven years of primary education. http://education.qld.gov.au/schools/...enrolling.html
However, some schools (independant ones) have a different system. eg: Junior (Years 1-6), Middle (Years 7-9) and Senior (Years 10-12)
Different schools will do different languages. In my area one of them teaches Indonesian, another does German and yet another Japanese.
You would need to check the schools out if you want to find a particular language. Here are some Education site links for the different States:
