DPCDSB's French Immersion Registration opens November 18, 2024
Registration for Dufferin-Peel Catholic District School Board's (DPCDSB) Grade 1 French Immersion Program for the 2025-2026 school year will open on Monday, November 18, 2024 at 9:00 a.m. and close on Monday, December 2, 2024 at 3:00 p.m. The online application will be available on the board's French Immersion webpage.
DPCDSB offers the French Immersion Program for students in Grades 1 to 8. The program offers an excellent opportunity for students to become functionally bilingual in later years. Students receive at least 4,510 hours of instruction in French with 90% of Grade 1 instruction delivered in French. By the end of Grade 8, the objectives are that students can:
- communicate effectively in French, by selecting the correct words and nuances, and adapting language in order to be understood;
- understand different media and print sources, with the occasional help of a translation service;
- demonstrate knowledge of cultures, societies, customs, and institutions of French-speaking communities and countries;
- function well in a French-speaking community.
