Education is highly valued in Canada. Fredericton is no exception. The city is equipped with the educational infrastructure and institutions required to take students from early childhood all the way to post-secondary education.
Fredericton’s public schools are governed by the provincial school system. The city is home to two school districts, one Anglophone (English speaking) district and a Francophone (French speaking) district. There are 35 Anglophone schools in the Fredericton area and two Francophone schools. Both school systems educate children from kindergarten (approximately age five) up through to Grade 12 (approximately age 17).
