QEA Educational Programming

Queen Elizabeth Annex (QEA) accommodates students in the District Choice Early French Immersion (EFI) Program. QEA is the annex to Ecole Jules Quesnel (JQ). After completing Grade 3, students from QEA move to JQ to complete their EFI program. 

Over the past several years, QEA has accommodated about 70 kindergarten to Grade 3 students.

As a District choice program, QEA is not a catchment school and is not needed to accommodate catchment enrolment. Instead, students in the area are accommodated at other nearby schools. 

On June 6, 2022, at a special Board meeting, the Vancouver School Board approved the closure of Queen Elizabeth Annex (QEA) effective June 30, 2023.
