Current student protests in France highlight what educators describe as years of structural neglect in the education system, along with worsening school inequalities and the cumulative effects of controversial reforms, reports France 24.
Axel Berra-Vescio, a history and geography teacher in the Paris region, emphasizes that repeated demands from education stakeholders have been ignored. He also condemns the police response to the protests, believing that repression will only strengthen a movement rooted in long-standing frustration over the future of public education.
