| Welcome
International Students
We
are pleased to invite you to study in the beautiful capital city of Ottawa.
The
Ottawa Carleton District School Board (OCDSB) gives international students
the opportunity to choose an educational path that best suits their interests
and goals. While living in Ottawa, students can benefit from the excellent
programs offered by the OCDSB.
Academic
and Cultural Experience
By
attending school in Canada and living in an all-English speaking environment,
students gain an understanding of Canadian culture and of the English
language that they cannot get from a classroom experience in their own
country.
Academic
Graduation
Students
can complete high school in Ontario and earn an Ontario Secondary Diploma
(OSSD). For more details go to high school program.
University/College
In the senior grades, courses are offered to prepare students for university,
college and workplace preparation.
English as a Second Language
Several high schools offer ESL instruction. Students
at the secondary level can earn credits for successfully completing ESL
courses. See ESL program for the stages of language
proficiency. |
