Title
Graduating from an English High School in Quebec: Postsecondary Education Aspirations and Career Plans
Abstract
Based on a questionnaire given to 4,000 Secondary V students who were attending English language schools in Quebec, the authors analyze the students' career plans and educational aspirations, their intentions to pursue their studies in English or in French, and the strength of the students' intentions to pursue a career in their home region. The authors found that a high proportion (84%) of these students intend to pursue postsecondary education; the authors found that Anglophone students in the East and Northeast of the province have difficulty finding English language postsecondary educational institutions in their home regions; and the authors found that only a third of the students (33%) intend to stay in their home region.
