New Brunswick releases controversial French second-language plan for English schools
Virtual consultations will take place on Jan. 31 and Feb. 2.The program will begin introducing students to French, primarily oral skills in early years, but also literacy, early sciences and other subjects. Goal is to make it thematic, fun and exciting for the kids.
Schools in areas that don’t have the necessary teachers will have some leeway on hitting the targets for the program, but will have to file a plan showing how they can fulfill it within two years.Students who are currently in the Language Learning Opportunity programs, or the pilots that helped test approaches for the universal system, will remain in those programs until the universal program expands into those grade levels.
