Czech term or phrase: Střední škola zdravotnická
I would like to call this Secondary School for Healthcare Workers. I can´t seem to find a consistent translation. Looking at the curriculum, it all has to do with healthcare realated jobs

(Secondary) nursing school


Explanation:
Not very keen on it but...
I believe that over here it would be "nursing school". The difference is, that these offer three years courses and you usually start at the age of 18 (in some cases 16), whilst back home they last four years and you start at the age of 14.

agree  Elizabeth Spacilova: definitely works in US, hopefully in the context you are working with it is clear this is a secondary school.

Medical high school or Health Sciences High School


Explanation:
Medical high school has a few hits on google - mainly from non-English-speaking countries (Holland, Spain), but both of the suggested terms I found on an American website.

Example sentence(s):
  • The campus for Health Sciences High School will be in La Mesa, at the former Coleman College location.
  • City (San Diego) helps to develop medical high school
