reshaping the A-Levels/High School seniors' educational structure
For BE A-Levels, for US H.S.. It probably refers to the recent concentration in Germany of 9 years' schooling to 8 without eliminating ballast.
Note from asker:
| Sylvie, I did not close the question yet. Also, I'll appreciate if you tell me what really is the coorect translation for this. |

: Ouch! The gymnasiale Oberstufe has nothing to do with A-levels/High School. They are completely different systems. And what do you mean by "without eliminating ballast"?

@ Ms. Malich: I know the system are different; however both can be defined as the last 2/3 yrs. of general education prior to university/college/Uni/FH. Ballast: content have not been streamlined to match reduction to 8 yrs. Regards.

: The concentration takes place in the subjects taught in 11th and 12th grade => The 13th year is eliminated.

restructuring of the senior years of secondary school in Germany
Die Umstrukturierung bezieht sich auf die Qualifikationshase im Gymnasium, die mit dem Abitur abschliesst und dann mit erfolgreichem Abschluss und entsprechender Abschlussnote zum Studium qualifiziert. Mit der Reform wird das 13. Schuljahr eliminiert und der Stoff wird auf die 11. und 12. Klasse umgelegt.

: I think the asker would be better served taking your explanation into his/her translation. I would still mention "Gymnasium" and qualification phase. Secondary school pales in comparison.

agree - quite a mouthful and still difficult to convey the full concept

: Ja, und genau diese Konzentration auf 2 Jahre ohne Reduzierung der Menge bewirkt die derzeitigen Probleme.

: Diese Formulierung findet sich aber auch auf aelteren Abiturzeugnissen mit dem Hinweis auf die entsprechende Vereinbarung von 1972 bzw. mit dem Zusatz i.d.F. von 1988 - hat nichts mit der NEUSTEN G8 Reform zu tun.

* Restructuring of senior high school level II
I find it hard to translate as there is no equivilant in the British or US school systems.
