Pupils will be banned from wearing abayas, loose-fitting full-length robes worn by some Muslim women, in France’s state-run schools, the education minister has said.

The rule will be applied as soon as the new school year starts on 4 September.

France has a strict ban on religious signs in state schools and government buildings, arguing that they violate secular laws.

Wearing a headscarf has been banned since 2004 in state-run schools.

    Fine. Can’t let the common folk of penis havers and non penis havers deciding how to dress.

    Fucking sheep have more self-respect.

      If you can’t make a response without an insult I don’t think your argument is pertinent . But what the government want to do here is to put religion the farthest possible of the common global education .For me that s a good point .
