| Grades 11 and 12 | Post-basic | Post-basic education follows the basic stage. |
| Vocational and technical programmes | Vocational | Vocational and technical programmes are being developed within post-basic education. |
| Tertiary study | Higher education | Higher-education routes follow school completion. |
