EDMONTON –  The Alberta government will be offering an Arabic language curriculum across the province next year.

Alberta Education is working to develop the bilingual program with Edmonton Public Schools, one of a few districts in the province that provides the option.

The Edmonton public board says Arabic is it’s fastest growing language program.

The province contracted the board last year to help develop a modified version.
