Language Requirements

Demonstrate Proficiency in the English Language

The English language school system in Ontario requires that all teachers have an acceptable level of oral and writen language skills. The offer of admission and the granting of the BEd degree are conditional upon proof that a student can communicate accurately, effectively and with clarity in the English language. If, in the Faculty's option, a student's use of the English language is not acceptable, the student must successfully complete an English language proficiency test. A student may be asked to withdraw from the program if they do not pass the proficiency test. Passing the English test requires a grade of B on the oral component, the notation "accepable" in composition, and score at or beyond the designated performance cut-off point on the written portion.
