Australia has a government- run series of public schools in most settled areas of the country at both primary and secondary levels. There are also a large number of privately run schools which are growing in popularity due to the higher standards generally available. Isolated students in the outback can receive tuition from a teacher via radio contact in the government provided School of the Air. Also, there are an increasing number of children being homeschooled. Traditionally, schools have always been divided into Primary (years 1-7 in some states and years 1-6 in others) and Secondary (years 8-12 or 7-12). There is an increasing trend towards including a Prep year prior to year 1 now, and to divide the schools into Junior, Middle and Senior Schools. The Middle school years can be anything from years 6-9, 7-8, 6-8, etc., depending on the school.

Is Olita elementary school closer to the north or south pole?
As you suspect, that depends on where it is on Earth. But you've given no information in the question to tell us that. The only thing we can guess is that the school may be in an English-speaking country. If that particular educational institution is anywhere in North America ... the US or Canada, for example ... or anywhere in Europe ... the UK, for example ... then it's in the northern hemisphere, and closer to the north pole. If it's in Australia, South Africa, Papua New Guinea, the Solomon Islands, Samoa, or other English-speaking places in the southern hemisphere, then it's closer to the south pole.
