Diplôme d'études en langue française
The DELF (Diplôme d'études en langue française) is an internationally recognized test of French proficiency. It is based on the Common European Framework of Reference (CEFR), which defines language proficiency along six global levels: A1, A2, B1, B2, C1 and C2. At each level, proficiency is measured across four competencies: listening, speaking, reading, and writing. France Education International awards successful candidates a diploma.
How do students know which level of test to take?
Diplôme d'études en langue française (DELF)
Since 2014, KPR has offered students the opportunity to challenge the DELF. The testing windows for the DELF sessions are chosen by FEI (France éducation international) and communicated to the Ontario DELF Centre, who in turn communicates these dates and times to school boards.
DELF 2025 - 2026
KPR will once again offer our Grade 12 students in all three of our FSL programs (Core French, French Immersion and Extended French) the opportunity to challenge the DELF this academic year. Students will have two administration windows to choose from.Â
The first DELF administration window will be in November 2025, beginning the week of November 17, 2025, where students have a choice of challenging either the A2 or the B1 proficiency levels. In conjunction with their FSL educators, students will choose which of the DELF levels they will challenge.Â
The second administration window will be in April 2026.
Only students who have not previously challenged the DELF exams are eligible to participate.
