Explanation:
Bachillerato - GCSE equivalent, at 16
BUP - the old name for the "Bachillerato" (Bachillerato Unificado Polivalente)
LOGSE - the name of the law that reformed education in the early nineties (Ley organica de ordenacion General del Sistema Educactivo)
LOCE- the latest reform law, passed in 2003 (Ley Organica de Calidad de la enseñanza)
REM - Not too sure about this one, but I think it is the older version of BUP, introduced in the early eightes title, - "Reforma de la Enseñanza Medias" - again the exams taken at 16.

Hope that helps
