French term or phrase: Tle
I am working on a document outlining additional requirements for a student at a French school. In a table, there are 3 headings which are ticked according to whether they are needed or not.

They are:
2de
1er

and

Tle

I am a bit stumped by "Tle"

Terminale


Explanation:
In a school context, this would most naturally be a table of requirements for each of the three years of high school:
"séconde", "première" and "terminale"

For an example, see the book below, which is listed as being for students in 1re/tle.

  -> That would depend on the context of the document- it's pretty common to keep the names of grades/years in school in the French for ease of comprehension, but if it must be translated, it would be 12th grade in US or Year 12 in UK English.

agree  SafeTex: "Terminale year" can be found but it is so unEnglish and I suspect just a literal translation. I prefer this solution
