Core Programs
L'École Bilingue is a single track French Immersion school. This means we offer only the French Immersion Program (some schools offer both a French Immersion stream and an English-only stream).
The breakdown of English and French language learning is as follows:
Grade | Percentage in French |
---|---|
K- 3 | 100 |
4 - 5 | 60 |
6 - 7 | 60 |
Kindergarten to Grade 3 receive 100% of subjects are taught in French. For Grades 4 and 5, 75% of subjects are taught in French and 25% in English, and for Grades 6 and 7 50% of subjects are taught in French and 50% in English. This prepares students to either continue with a French Immersion Program in select high schools or to move to an all-English high school.
Within our French Immersion program, we are very pleased to offer a well-rounded education for children covering arts, athletics and technology and also trips and excursions including a 10-day exchange to Quebec for Grade 7s.
