The Teaching of Two Foreign Languages (French/English) in Primary Education in Algeria

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: The teaching of French in Algeria, beginning in primary school, can be attributed to various historical and social factors. French and English are introduced alongside a mixture of languages starting from the third year of primary education in Algerian schools. In this context, one may question whether this constitutes a challenge or a linguistic asset, particularly following the requirement to introduce English at the same stage as French. Several phenomena emerge, including language transfer, interference, and code-switching.
