Graduation provides the Ontario Secondary School Diploma. The French Immersion Program enables DELF proficiency, and secondary levels support bilingual qualifications.

Bilingual Teaching

CISE offers a French Immersion program across elementary and secondary, with students following the Ontario curriculum content alongside their English-program peers. The Kindergarten French Immersion Program is a two-year, trilingual experience with instruction in English, French and Arabic; teachers speak French all the time and most class activities are conducted in French, though some specialist subjects may be taught in English. Upon graduation from Grade 8, students receive an Elementary French Immersion Certificate, and continued study in the French Immersion program at the secondary level supports bilingual qualifications.
