neutral  Tereza Rae: Mario, sinto discordar de você, mas creio que os termos que você sugeriu não transmitem a ideia (pelo menos aqui na América do Norte) de que essas escolas, devido à excelente qualidade de seu ensino, sejam um modelo para as demais escolas da área.

agree  Tereza Rae: Não entendo porque você usou o "In" na frente. Simplesmente 'benchmark secondary schools' seria suficiente.

leading secondary/high school(s)


Explanation:
In the case at hand (see: http://www.educacao.pe.gov.br/portal/?pag=1&men=70), one briefly analyses the school calendars and/or weekly workload of both students and teachers in some of the state's (Pernambuco) leading schools.
This is done to draw positive results from a model of verifiable excellence (as per the program's vision).

The translator would then have to decide between going for either leading "high" or "secondary" school, the former being slightly more popular in the US, and the latter a rather normative choice along most countries of the Commonwealth (but still observed in various American reports and publications). Nevertheless, if in doubt, do go for "secondary".

Reference: Algumas considerações

Reference information:
É importante salientar que o ensino médio no Brasil corresponde às 'High Schools' ou 'Secondary Schools' da América do Norte. Não creio que 'Intermediate' seja o termo correto. Outra coisa: aqui no Canadá, pelo que eu saiba, não existem escolas de referência (seja do ensino fundamental ou médio). O que existem são certas escolas que têm um foco específico. Por exemplo, em Toronto há uma high school para jovens de descendência Africana:
https://schoolweb.tdsb.on.ca/africentricschool/ (Africentric Alternative School)
Há também uma escola só para estudantes LGBTQ:
http://triangleprogram.ca/
Em Vitoria, British Columbia, há essa escola para atletas de elite que tem dificuldades em conciliar os treinos com a vida acadêmica:
https://schoolweb.tdsb.on.ca/africentricschool/
E várias outras com focos variados (artes, religião, línguas, deficiências físicas, meio ambiente, etc)
Nenhuma dessas escolas proclama sua superioridade sobre as outras. Elas apenas atendem a grupos específicos de alunos, com necessidades e interesses específicos. Portanto, acho que não dá para traduzir com exatidão o termo 'escolas de referência'. A meu ver, a sugestão do Nick é a que chega mais perto.
