Late French Immersion Program

Late French Immersion: Grade 6

The Vancouver School Board's Late French Immersion program accepts 10 and 11 year olds who have successfully completed grade 5. Registration happens in January 6 - February 3, 2026 ONLINE.


Elementary Late French Immersion is offered at the following schools for the 2026/2027 school year:


Curriculum

In grade 6, 100% of the BC curriculum is taught in French (emphasis is on oral French). In grade 7, English Language Arts are reintroduced while other subjects continue to be taught in French.

Registration Information

Students in Grade 5 may apply for admission to Grade 6 Late French Immersion. After the application closing day, all those who applied will have their names entered into a draw to determine who will be offered available seats at each location. Families will then be contacted regarding offers for placement at each site for which their name is drawn.

Please note that due to the nature and pace of the program, students will not be admitted to the Late French Immersion program after the second week of instruction.
