DELF Junior/Scolaire is a diploma issued by the French Ministry of National Education, recognizing French-language studies. While it shares
the basic structure with the standard DELF, the topics are tailored to the interests of young people. It is designed for children aged 12 to
18.
DELF exams are globally recognized and provide a lifelong valid diploma for your child. The awarded diploma is identical to the standard DELF certificate. It is widely implemented in Alberta and across Canada, offering independent registration for candidates. The exams assess the four communication skills: reading, listening, writing, and speaking.

The Alliance Française regularly offers
preparation classes for the DELF exams. Contact us for more information.
If you are a teacher and wish to organize a DELF scolaire session for a large number of students, contact us at least four months prior to the DELF examination date. Please note that there will be an organizational fee to organize a session in your school.
The DELF Scolaire and DELF Junior exams follow the same structure and assess language proficiency equally. However, they differ in administration and candidate eligibility.
DELF Scolaire is organized within schools, either on-site or at AFC, and is specifically designed for students enrolled in those schools. On the other hand, DELF Junior accepts individual candidates who are not taking DELF Scolaire through their school.
Schools wishing to organize the DELF scolaire for their students (at their location or at the AFC) must contact Aymeric at education@afcalgary.ca or 403-245-5662 before March 15th to explore the option. As this is a popular examination, we cannot guarantee that our organization will be able to offer the DELF scolaire at your school.
