What is the difference between this and what the french do?

The french have banned all religious iconography from educational institutions. Simple separation of church and state. This is different, and it's kind of obvious.

Isn’t it kind of strange that French schools didn’t have a problem with religious iconography until recently?

It was introduced in 2004, so you may be right. This may be a case of "brown people bad".
