Primary-Junior
The Faculty of Education far surpassed my expectations. From critical thinking to self-reflection, I have developed many skills that will make me a more effective teacher. I am enthusiastic about beginning my career knowing that I have built solid foundations in both theory and practice here at Western.

Primary Junior (French as a Second Language Program)

Applicants must be fluent in French and meet all minimum requirements for the P/J program. Five full French courses (or the equivalent), at least two of which must be language courses, are required for admission to the FSL program. One or more full course equivalents in French literature is desirable for those hoping to teach in French-immersion settings.
