French term or phrase: Sixième secondaire
Bonjour,
Je traduis un relevé de note du Zaïre du français vers l'anglais (pour le système canadien). En tête du relevé est inscrit:
Bulletin de sixième secondaire commerciale et administrative.
Je cherche à comprendre ce qu'est une "sixième secondaire" dans ce contexte. L'étudiante aurait eu 21-22 ans à l'époque, donc il ne s'agit pas de la sixième d'un lycée ou d'une école intermédiaire. Quelqu'un est-il familiarisé avec le système d'études de ce pays? Merci beaucoup d'avance
