Ahead of his grilling by French MPs, we take a deep dive into how the sex abuse scandal at the Catholic school Bétharram has become a political hot potato for Prime Minister François Bayrou. We also discuss the ongoing debate about private and public schools in France. Finally, as many victims were told corporal punishment was good discipline, we find out how the French feel about "les fessées’", or spankings.
