Does the futur proche also require le futur after quand and pendant que?

Bonjour,

I think that the Futur Proche follows the rule in this lesson but I could not find any  confirming examples.  Can someone confirm that the following sentence is correct? 

Je vais nettoyer l'appart pendant que tu seras partie.


Thanks,

John

Hi John,

Yes you could use the futur proche or the futur and your sentence is correct.

Bonne continuation!
