Linguistic inclusivity in the classroom contributes to inclusive societies. When the language of instruction is the student's mother tongue, it can help bridge a potential gap between languages spoken at home and at school. This approach provides a more inclusive form of education as it enables students to settle into the learning environment in a language familiar to them, which also contributes to the academic achievement and chances later in life.  2, record 1, English, - linguistic%20inclusivity

People who can conduct a conversation in French only are assigned French as their first official language spoken. People who can carry on a conversation in English only are assigned English as their first official language spoken. The responses to questions on mother tongue and language spoken most often at home are subsequently used to establish the first official language spoken by people who speak both English and French, or who cannot speak either of the two official languages.  1, record 2, English, - first%20official%20language%20spoken

This problem must be understood in the more general context in which Commissioner Goldbloom noted that there is a certain degree of assimilation occurring within the Francophone community of Ontario, the number of persons saying they have French as their mother tongue exceeding the number of those who say they still use this language as their principal language in the home.  1, record 4, English, - degree%20of%20assimilation

In Quebec, the proportion of Anglophones has declined continuously, dropping from 14% in 1951 to 9% in 1996.

Much of the drop in the target student population can be attributed to non-transmission of the language at home. With a language continuity index of about 70% since 1971, the target student population is expected to drop even more sharply. The school definitely plays a role in this transmission and, clearly, measures that ensure the transmission of French must continue to be implemented, because the right to instruction in French will be lost if French is no longer used as a mother tongue by the target student population or as a language of instruction.  5, record 6, English, - language%20continuity%20index
