Will my child receive a French certificate at graduation?
Yes, your child will receive a French certificate at Grade 12 graduation. This certificate is not a bilingual certificate. The certificate will acknowledge the hours your child has spent studying French. Post-secondary institutions will know that your child was enrolled in either the Extended French or French Immersion program based on the course codes.
In Grade 12 Core French, Extended French and French Immersion students are given the opportunity to complete the DELF French Proficiency Exam. The DELF proficiency exam is official proof of a student's French language skills.
