I guess you are talking about these Ubuntu meta-packages
ubuntu-edu-(preschool|primary|secondary|tertiary).

Unlike Edubuntu, Debian Edu is grouping educational applications rather 
by topic, not by education level (exception: education-primaryschool).

The Debian Edu meta-packages are:
education-astronomy, education-chemistry, education-development, 
education-electronics, education-geography, education-graphics, 
education-language, education-logic-games, education-mathematics, 
education-misc, education-music, education-physics, education-video.

A detailed overview about the recommended educational applications is 
available on the 'Debian Edu Packages' page:

This wouldn't be compliant with the Debian Edu namespace.
And it's not needed anyway because you can just apt install the 
education-* packages listed above (or maybe only a subset).
