Social Sciences - Education / Pedagogy / preescolar + educación primaria + educación secundaria
Spanish term or phrase: educación básica (aquí)
Estoy traduciendo un título de bachiller venezolano y en la apostilla dice:

"Tipo de actuación: documento inherente a la educación básica."

No puede ser primary o elementary education, porque se trata de un títullo que se obtiene después de la secundaria.

En wikipedia encontré esta definición:

Educación básica: Engloba Educación Infantil, Educación Primaria y Educación Secundaria

¿Hay alguna expresión en inglés que englobe esto? Muchas gracias por su ayuda

Explanation:
Not a very elegant translation, but then again the Spanish also strikes me as awkward.

I think that this would be the safest way to go, unless someone familiar with the use of the phrase in Venezuelan documents can convince you that the phrase means something significantly different.
