The number of Quebec children attending school in French continues to grow as the number of students eligible for education in English decreases, new data from the province’s language watchdog show.
The agency—Office québécois de la langue française, commonly known by its abbreviation OQLF—published its latest study on education language on Dec. 19, showing that the proportion of anglophone students attending French schools shot up in Quebec over the last two decades, going from 18.4 percent in 2000 to 31.9 percent in 2021.
