新しい (atarashii) is the general word for 'new'. 新たな (aratana) implies a replacement or fresh start, and is more formal. 新規 (shinki) is often used in business/IT for something newly established or created from zero.
The English word 'system' can refer to many things (computer systems, social systems, methods). In Japanese, システム (shisutemu) is common for IT/mechanical systems, but for abstract systems like 'education system' use 制度 (seido) or 体系 (taikei). Always consider the context.
