Mom-led
Founded by a mom and teacher, trusted by families across Canada
Burnaby Schools is the fourth-largest school district in BC, with 27,000 students in 41 elementary and 8 secondary schools. French Immersion spots are given out by lottery each March, so plan ahead if you're interested.
Your province's curriculumCertified educators only
The curriculum, the tests, the school boards and the French options your child's tutor will work with.
Schools follow the BC curriculum. You get at least three written reports a year, two learning updates and a summary at year end. From Kindergarten to Grade 9, progress is described as Emerging, Developing, Proficient or Extending.
The Foundation Skills Assessment looks at reading, writing and numeracy in Grades 4 and 7. In high school, students write the Grade 10 Numeracy and Literacy assessments and the Grade 12 Literacy assessment.
Burnaby Schools (School District 41) runs the public schools in Burnaby. Families with French-language rights can also choose the Conseil scolaire francophone, which runs French first-language schools across the Lower Mainland.
Burnaby students can enter Early French Immersion in Kindergarten or Late Immersion in Grade 6. No French background is needed for either, and places are filled by a lottery held in early March.
