    (University of Oum El Bouaghi, 2023) Benabbas, Kawther; Melgani, Haroun
    The introduction of English in the Algerian primary schools has created a cloud of different opinions. Addressing this issue, the present study aims to investigate teachers' and parents' attitudes towards the integration of English in third year primary schools. Targeting 100 EFL teachers and 80 parents from different regions as a sample,it is hypothesised that EFL teachers and parents held positive opinions towards the addressed issue. In an attempt to accomplish the aforementioned aim and test the hypothesis, two questionnaires are used as the main tool of research adopting the descriptive quantitative method in the process. In light of the findings, the aforesaid hypothesis is confirmed given that both EFL teachers and parents have positive attitudes towards the implementation of English at the primary level of education. In addition, most of them adopt language schemes to encourage young children to learn English. Finally, this study can be of great importance to further research because it offers suggestions and recommendations to enhance foreign language teaching in Algeria.
