Detailed Solution

The given statement is False.
The wearing of obvious religious or political signs or symbols by students, such as the Jewish skullcap, the Islamic hijab, or huge Christian crosses, was outlawed in France in February 2004. Immigrants from the former French colonies of Algeria, Tunisia, and Morocco have been very opposed to this regulation. Due to a labour shortage in the 1960s, France granted these immigrants visas to enter and work there. These immigrants' daughters frequently covered their heads while in school. However, since this new law was passed, they had been sent out of school for donning head scarves.
Thus, the correct statement is that in 2004, France banned the wearing of Islamic headscarves.
