Map offers a fascinating glimpse into the linguistic diversity of education across Australia 🇦🇺

Japanese stands out as the most widespread language, appearing in nearly every region, a sign of Australia’s long-standing educational and cultural ties with Japan. Chinese (Mandarin) follows closely, particularly strong in the eastern states, highlighting Australia’s growing ties with the country and its significant Chinese-speaking communities.

European influence remains strong too. Italian and French are popular in Victoria, New South Wales and Western Australia, tracing back to post-war migration and Australia’s appreciation for European culture.

Some states also reflect regional proximity and diversity: Indonesian is common in Western Australia and Canberra due to Australia’s closeness to Indonesia, while Arabic features in New South Wales.
