The education provided by elementary or primary schools with the purpose of providing a solid base of reading, writing, and arithmetic.

Intermediate education [Secondary]

The education provided by institutions of intermediate education: High schools, middle schools, technical schools, teaching school (Escuelas Normales), etc. The prerequisite for entering these schools is the completion of the last grade in elementary.
