English term

reach school 

GBK English to Latvian Social Sciences Education / Pedagogy
Definition from Education.com, Inc.:
A reach or dream school is a highly desirable school, where many applicants have similar qualifications, but not all students can be offered admission. It is highly possible the student may not be accepted for admission, as the competition for spots in the class is fierce.
Example sentences:

A school that used to accept 50% of applicants may now accept only 30%. As a result, many schools that would have been a match a few years ago are suddenly reach schools. (About.com)
