From the results we have obtained, from the survey and other sources, we feel that if parents choose to send their children to French-language child care centres, where there is a significant French presence, this has a direct impact on whether the children go to French schools later. That is just one example, but early childhood has often enough been identified as an important area. Clearly, if parents start exposing their children to French at the earliest possible age, this can have a significant impact on the way things turn out.
Going to school in French has an impact on children's attitudes and perceptions, and this may ultimately have an impact on behaviour.
