French student protests resume on smaller scale after school holidays
Students blockaded some French high schools on Monday as classes restarted, with the education ministry counting 41 affected schools.
Students blocked entrances at some French high schools on Monday, the first day back after the autumn break. They want to restart a protest movement that began last month.
Al Jazeera reports the education ministry counted 41 schools blockaded. France 24 says blockades were held in several cities, among them Paris, Marseille and Rennes.
The government made a handful of concessions during the holidays. France 24 reports the students were not deterred by them. Both outlets describe the turnout as smaller than before the break.
