Schooling in English and French around Saint-Michel
English, French and other languages of instruction, beside the mix in Quebec.
The mark on each bar is the share of schools in Quebec.
Not one teaches in English.
Quebec’s Charter of the French Language sends most children to French-language schools; English public schooling is for children who hold a certificate of eligibility.

How children get a place in Saint-Michel
English schools in Quebec
English public schooling in Quebec needs a certificate of eligibility, usually earned through a parent’s English elementary schooling in Canada; other children attend French schools.
Independent schools
Fees and admissions are each independent school’s own; the province covers a share of costs for those that meet its rules.
The neighbourhood school
Boards set boundaries for each school; living inside one guarantees a place there, and moving across one usually means a request.
The provinces’ education acts and the boards’ own admission policies; check with the board for a given address.

What this data can and can’t tell you
- The kinds of school. The levels follow each school’s published grades: elementary below Grade 7 or 9, secondary above, all-grade when it runs the whole way.
- Which schools count. The page takes in schools within Saint-Michel and up to 3 km past its boundary, so a school just over the line is still here.
- Boards and systems. Language, not faith, divides Quebec’s public schools: French service centres and English boards share the map.
- The year. As the province lists them in 2025-26.
- What isn’t here. Missing: inspection ratings (no province gives them), enrolment trends and Ontario’s private schools.
- One school, two buildings. Buildings are listed separately in Quebec, so some schools appear twice.
