François Hollande plans to shake up education system

Libération praises Hollande’s attempt to fix the education system at its very foundation, in a glowing editorial.

Le Monde points out the potential pitfalls when it comes to overhauling the curriculum, timetables and homework in primary schools.

Le Figaro boils down the data from an INSEE report and gives us a snapshot of immigration in France today.

Le Parisien puts a positive spin on these findings, saying 9 out of 10 second generation immigrants “feel French” and that they enjoy some social mobility, with more qualifications than their parents.

But Libération casts a cynical eye over this study, pointing out that even French nationals with immigrant parents still face discrimination.

Finally, he’s back in the headlines: Dominique Strauss-Kahn gives an interview to Le Point magazine, and  Le Parisien gives us a preview.
