Student protests halt schools in France
Protests by students in France have expanded to most parts of the country, with around 400 high schools closed and clashes with security forces, resulting in hundreds of students, education sector workers, police, and gendarmes injured. Authorities confirmed that more than 400 educational institutions will remain closed due to damage, as incidents of violence and confrontations continue and escalate amid demands to improve studying conditions, which include overcrowding, teacher shortages, deteriorating buildings, and objections to long school hours. The protests have also spread to universities, involving peaceful students and acts of vandalism. The government has called on parents to take responsibility for preventing their children from participating and has directed efforts to control the events. There are accusations that political parties are organizing the protests, which coincided with debates over the 2027 education budget—projected to be below inflation—and which pose additional challenges to the country's education system.
