ESL: English as a Second Language

The English as a Second Language (ESL) program is a support program for students whose first language is not English. The ESL program is available in elementary and secondary schools.

Newcomers to Canada should visit the Welcome Centre for Newcomer Families before registering at a school. At the Welcome Centre families will discover all of the unique opportunities available at our schools.
