French primary school pupils will attend school five days a week from now on, despite opposition from parents. The head of a major parents' group in France tells The Local why the new five-day school week will bring French schools into the 21st century. Franceâs age-old tradition of primary school pupils having Wednesdays off will finally come to an end this week throughout the country. The reforms were initiated last year in many towns and cities but from this September the timetable reform will be mandatory across the whole of France, with a few exceptions. The change will now mean a half-day of classes on Wednesday morning for all nursery and primary school kids who had been excused from these since as far back as 1882.
