High School
A secondary school, high school, or senior school, is an institution that provides secondary education. Some secondary schools provide both ''lower secondary education'' (ages 11 to 14) and ''upper secondary education'' (ages 14 to 18), i.e., both levels 2 and 3 of the ISCED scale, but these can also be provided in separate schools. There may be other variations in the provision: for example, children in Australia, Hong Kong, and Spain change from the primary to secondary systems a year later at the age of 12, with the ISCED's first year of lower secondary being the last year of primary provision. In the United States, most local secondary education systems have separate middle schools and high schools. Middle schools are usually from grades 6–8 or 7–8, and high schools are typically from grades 9–12. In the United Kingdom, most state schools and privately funded schools accommodate pupils between the ages of 11 and 16 or between 11 and 18; some UK privat ...

Almanij
Almanij (for ''Algemene'' ''Maatschappij'' voor ''Nijverheidskrediet'', "General Credit Company for Industry") was a Belgian holding company active in financial services, created in 1931 and merged into KBC Group in March 2005. History Almanij was incorporated in 1931 as an initiative of the Catholic Algemeene Bankvereeniging, a Belgian bank founded by the ''Leuvense Volksbank'' (Leuven) in Antwerp in 1921. This was done in order to regroup its industrial holdings in Belgium and Hungary. In 1935, the Middenkredietkas went nearly bankrupt due to the economic crisis, which led to the establishment of the ''Kredietbank'' of which Almanij became a shareholder. The Catholic ''Boerenbond'' (E: Belgian Farmers’ Union) created its own network of savings banks: CERA instead of relying on the Middenkredietkas, which was closely related to the Algemeene Bankvereeniging. In 1949, the ''Kredietbank Luxembourgeoise'' was founded in Luxembourg, which specialized in private banking. In 19 ...
