Wider Than Expected Success of School Uniform Trials in France
France is seeing greater interest in school uniform trials than anticipated, with 204 establishments now participating, double the initial estimate. This testing phase, confirmed by the Ministry of Education, will be evaluated for potential implementation in the 2026 school year, as proposed by President Emmanuel Macron. The trials have already started in some schools, with participation spread across 95 departments. The cost of the uniforms is being borne by local authorities.
