    These are indeed schools that teach Breton and other subjects in Breton,
    but they are not public schools, in the sense of being run by the state.

    There are "true" public schools that teach in Breton, and Div Yezh is a
    parent's association that promotes their development; according to their
    site, there are about 50 such schools, enrolling about 3000 students. Of
    course, we are speaking K-12, or about 3 to 18 years old. In those
    schools, the teaching is half in French and half in Breton.

    That being said, it is true that France is doing about as little as it
    can to support Breton and other regional languages, in schools and
    elsewhere.

    Eric.
