BAQUERO, Fanny e SILVA, Adriana. The re-introduction of French in Colombia, a challenge which concerns us all. Folios [online]. 2014, n.39, pp.107-116. ISSN 0123-4870.
The re-introduction of French in Colombia is a project which has been in existence since 2008. This project is important because it seeks to develop quality bilingual education in public secondary schools. The aim of this article is to show the evolution of French teaching in 'La Candelaria' school in Bogota and the perceptions of everyone involved in this educational process. After carrying out a case study, we find that there are various contexts in La Candelaria school which have a high degree of vulnerability in the educational process. Nevertheless, we also find that the French language has a social function in the school and it is therefore possible to use it as an educational tool. This school is susceptible to changes which could improve the educational process by means of the French language and it could provide the students with a different pedagogical setting in order to implement quality education.
