> "real'noe uchilishche"?
This does not suggest an English equivalent for you, but note that the
novelist Boris Akunin defines the term briefly and has a little fun with it
during the course of his 2005 book 'Detskaja kniga.' You can find his
initial mention of it here <http://tinyurl.com/ddst9z> beginning a few lines
from the bottom of the page (p. 90).
Note that in this case a post-secondary school is not intended, as the boy
who will be disguised as a "realist" is about eleven years old.
