## Coverage angles

The three sides cover the same unauthorized homeschooling judicial case, but the left emphasizes the principle of freedom of instruction, the center the family story and the trial postponement, the right the procedure and judicial calendar.

**Common ground**

- A mother from Colombiers, near Béziers, is prosecuted for having instructed her children at home without requesting the required derogation, along with her husband.
- The trial scheduled for Monday, November 9 has been postponed.

**Differences**

- The left presents the case under the angle of a freedom to exercise without prior authorization, an angle absent from the center and right articles.
- The center and right explicitly mention the postponement of the trial, the right specifying March 2027, while the left article provided does not mention it.
- The left underlines the risk of a prison sentence, an element not taken up in the center and right excerpts.
