FSL Programs and

For more information about French as a Second Language programs in
English-language school boards, including students with special needs and
English language learners, refer to the information and resources posted on the
Ontario Ministry of Education web site.
In the Toronto Catholic District School Board, we believe that every
child is capable of learning French. There are six principles set out by the
Ontario Ministry of Education that guide our work:
·
French as a Second Language programs are for all students
·
Teaching and learning French is recognized and valued
·
French as a Second Language serves as a bridge between languages and
cultures
·
Learning French as a Second Language strengthens literacy skills
·
Research informs decision-making, and
·
Learning French as a Second Language is a lifelong journey
