Join Voice of English-speaking Québec (VEQ) and the Wellness Centre for an informational evening about the Quebec school system.  If you ever wondered how the school system works in Quebec or how it is different from where you moved from, then this is for you!  Our guest speaker Gina Farnell will enlighten us on what is unique about Québec’s school system and how it is different from elsewhere.

Some topics that will be covered:

  • A brief look at the history of the education system here.
  • The levels of education from Pre-Kindergarten to Cegep and University.
  • How the names of grades are different here from elsewhere.  Cycle 1 and 2, Secondary 1 and 2.
  • What is a typical school day like for a child? How does before and after school care work?
  • What is the Cegep system?
  • Quebec universities and the low tuition rates.
  • And more!
