French education in Canada
Canadian French schools have earned a strong reputation. As per the France Canada Culture website, these schools are notable for providing high-quality education with an international perspective, guided by the principles of French-style education and embracing the culture of the host country.
Based on a mission conducted by two appointed inspectors general, it was found that all these institutions adhere to official French curricula and recent national education reforms. Additionally, at the college level (for history and geography) and high school level (for science subjects), there is the possibility of incorporating "provincial" supplements.
Here is a list of establishments recognized by the French Ministry of Education and belonging to the Agency for French Education Abroad network.
