Conclusions regarding the DELF within the OCDSB, prepared by Jennifer Adams, Pino Buffone, and Denis Cousineau of the Ottawa-Carleton District School Board DELF-DALF Centre.

“With the opportunity to receive an internationally-recognized diploma, the DELF has obviously become an essential motivation tool for all of our students, both in core and French immersion classes. We are increasingly optimistic that we will see our young students perfect their language skills with the feeling of greater mastery of French, this beautiful official language, but especially with the newfound confidence that comes with using it every day.

This is the fourth year that we have offered the DELF for Schools, and it is very clear that the DELF for Schools will be an essential part of our FSL programs. Long live the DELF-DALF.”
