French students block dozens of schools to 'put pressure on the government'

French students protested by blocking high school entrances on November 10, demanding better learning conditions amid ongoing cost-of-living demonstrations. Protests have escalated since September, with significant participation reported. The government faces challenges in addressing demands due to public debt constraints. Forty-nine high schools were blockaded, and a larger protest in Paris was anticipated. Student and teacher unions emphasized the need for continued mobilization, while the government announced limited measures to address concerns. Labor unions criticized the government's wage increase as insufficient, planning further strikes on November 17.
