m2611/mumdxbcan,
Explore through the websites. The next generation of students will have a lot more of the school materials and web based in home studies too to supplement their curriculum, so don't have to worry about the education except help them with some home work and projects.

Since you mentiond Grade 4, I chose to provide you with the details of the courses. Some times we do not have a choice, due to the non availability of all of the schooling systems in every location that we choose to live. So we are plum out of luck.
Please do your own analysis and see if she has completed all of the course materials. If you have any specific questions, do not hesitate to ask the SCHOOL Board, in the location you intend to live and pursue the child's education. International languages are also taught and provided with due credits and see if the child has proficiency in any one of them or more than one. Lot of European children do.

Please get all of the certificates, such as vaccination certificate and any other in the health card, that is specified as required.
Educational: school certificates in Music, sports, extra curricular activities, languages and hobbies, all originals.
You can mail copies of them them to the area you wish to settledown, to a school in the nearby location, where you will be having your base, Residence, If you have one. Otherwise after you land and settle down, you may get the curriculum materials and test her yourself and then take her to the school and then enroll. They will be conducting the suitability test for a level that you are aiming for. Now you are ahead of the game.

Now, let your fingers do the walking.
