Not in NSW.

Psychology is not a subject that's available at HSC level (Year 11 and 12) in schools here. Can't find any reference to it in the TAFE course lists, either.

Definitely have psych at Yrs 11 & 12 in ACT and I think also Vic and SA but not sure about the other states. There is an IB psych course as well but not sure if any of the IB schools do it.

If your wife is a psych and is registerable as a practising psychologist, she could think of becoming a school counsellor they are always looking for them!
