Bendale Business and Technical Institute (Bendale BTI, BBTI, or Bendale), formerly Bendale Secondary School and Bendale Vocational School is a defunct specialized technical public high school that was located in Bendale, a neighbourhood in Scarborough, Ontario, Canada owned by the Scarborough Board of Education, that succeeded its operations into the present Toronto District School Board prior to merger. Existed from 1963 until its closure in 2019, it was the first vocational school that served in the former borough of Scarborough in which the school tailored for students with life skills or pursue career in the industry. The school's motto was Flourish Through Industry.

The school merged with David and Mary Thomson Collegiate Institute in 2019, after which it was demolished and the former race track replaced by the new school building. Bendale was located on the eastern corner of Midland Avenue north of Lawrence Avenue East.
