Schools called "technical institute" or "technical school" that were formed in the early 20th century provided further education between high school and University or Polytechnic. Most technical institutes have been merged into regional colleges and some have been designated university colleges if they are associated with a local university.
Is there an answer to this question (If it cannot be answered, say "unanswerable"): A student would attend a technical institute before a university or polytechnic but after what?
high school
