What began September 21 at a Créteil high school over teacher shortages, overcrowded classes and crumbling buildings has spread nationwide — 24 schools burned or ransacked, 78 staff injured, over 6,500 arrested, mostly minors. Police fired tear gas as the Paris march ended; Prime Minister Sébastien Lecornu suspended classes through the week. Tue, 06 Oct 2026 12:00:00 +0000
