The project began at Coll\u00e8ge Aim\u00e9 et Eug\u00e9nie Cotton in Blanc-Mesnil, a town in the Seine-Saint-Denis department, where many students come from Romanian-speaking families.<\/p>\n
Under the program, led by France\u2019s Ministry of National Education through the Cr\u00e9teil Academy, Romanian will be taught as a second mandatory foreign language (LV2), with plans to expand gradually to higher grades over several years.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The long-term objective is to develop a full Romanian curriculum that would run up to the equivalent of 12th grade in the French system.<\/p>\n
The Romanian Embassy in France welcomed the initiative, describing it as an important step for cultural and linguistic integration.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is very good news at the start of the new school year,\u201d the embassy said in the post on social media, adding thanks to the school\u2019s leadership, teacher Alexandru Mardale, students and parents, as well as both central and local French authorities.<\/p>\n\n
