Fyi: it's called post secondary because, I think, UK calls it primary, secondary, and after that is post secondary.

In Brazil the names changed quite a bit across the years. I believe that the current ones are

  • fundamental - 9 years (6yo to 14yo)
  • médio (middle) - 3 years (15yo to 17yo)
  • superior / universitário (universitarian) - typically 4~5 years, but it varies

The first two used to be called primeiro grau (first grade), segundo grau (second grade). And even further back, the primeiro grau was actually two, primário (primary - 4y, from 7yo to 10yo) and ginasial (gymnasial - 4y, from 11yo to 14yo).
