Presentation
The international section at the elementary school:
The section has 3 objectives:
- Facilitate the integration of foreign students into the French school system and their eventual return to their home system
- To create, thanks to the presence of English, Spanish and French speaking students, an environment conducive to the learning of a foreign language at a high level. The predominantly English-speaking Canadian child will have native French or Spanish-speaking children as peers.
- To encourage the transmission of the cultural heritage of the countries concerned.
3 hours of foreign language instruction
Each week, students receive 3 hours of instruction in a foreign language (English or Spanish).
Special courses can be provided to bring foreign students up to speed in French and French students in foreign languages.
