More Filipino students to learn French

More Pinoy students will get a chance to learn French in public schools and become more "globally competitive," the Department of Education (DepEd) said, as it announced a renewed partnership with the French Embassy.
A new memorandum of agreement has been signed to continue French as a second foreign language and as an elective offered to some high schools including one in Mindanao, the DepEd said in a statement.
This, as it touted the success of an agreement signed in 2009 which has so far benefitted more than 1,500 students in public high schools in Metro Manila and Central Visayas (Region VII).
