Will you stay in Canada for long? Do you want your children to learn both English and French, and work in federal government?
If yes, MFI because EFI starts in JK/SK and LFI starts in a higher grade.

Otherwise, regular English.
Some English schools also provide English as Second Language (ESL) program for new immigrant students.

怎么选学校

谢谢楼上！但是我还是有些不明白。这么说，我的孩子只会英文也可以选择上这些只提供MFI而没有REGULAR ENGLISH的学校，那她的英文怎么办？我想让她英文与法语都学，在KANATA 该选哪所学校比较好？请帮忙，因为这关系到我要在哪儿买房子，谢谢大家！

For MFI, they are designed for students who do not learn French between JK and grade 3. They teach most courses in French in grades 4, 5 and 6. Then, some courses are taught in English in grades 7 and 8.

Check the information from Ottawa public school board for the details.
MFI program: http://www.ocdsb.edu.on.ca/documents/OCDSB_Publications/MFI.pdf

EFI, MFI, LFI, regular english and other programs information: Ottawa Carleton District School Board | Our Programs | Elementary Programs

For MFI, Katimavik ES (Kanata) is a very good school in Ontario. (MFI school area: Katimavik, Kanata Lakes, Beaverbrook, ...etc.)

You can check whether you live in the school area at Ottawa Carleton District School Board | Community Corner | Moving to Ottawa? | School Locator

Ask a question, If I want to be an elementary school teacher. But I only speak English, no French. Is it possible to find such job in Ottawa region?
(If I got pass for regular occupation)

Sorry for no Chinese input

这个可能更直观一些，只是渥太华的学校。

Katimavik [Public] Kanata 排名整个Ottawa第二，应该是个不错的学校吧。

其实选择真的是不容易的事，这里的小学教育除了学校给予的以外，还是需要家长的辅助的，如果选择上法语学校，那么作为不懂法语的家长，该如何去面对这个问题？可如果选择英语学校，又担心孩子不能受到双语教育，一早失去了竞争力。挺矛盾的。
