About The Class


Francois Marin (François Bégaudeau) is a French language and literature teacher at an inner-city Paris high school. As the new school year begins, he introduces himself to his new class and begins the arduous process of reaching out to each of them. Marin encounters his share of problem students, teen violence, ethnic tensions between classmates and education barriers within the group, all of which test his patience and -- more importantly -- his resolve as an educator.

May 3,2023 5:51 am

Six French teenagers accused of complicity in the Murder of A Teacher will go On Trial today.

The Other five suspects in the case are alleged to have helped Anzorov identify Mr Paty at The School in exchange for a €300 (£260) payment. One said Anzorov told him that he wanted to film Mr Paty apologising for showing caricatures of The Prophet Muhammad.

A second trial will open next year for eight adults also accused of complicity in the Murder . These include Brahim Chnina, The Father of the 13-year-old girl On Trial .
