Share:
Teachers across France staged strikes to protest government plans to eliminate 4,000 education positions for the 2026-27 school year. The planned cuts would affect both public and private sector education, with 1,891 positions eliminated at primary school level and 1,365 at secondary school level. The strikes also targeted low teacher salaries, reflecting broader concerns about the state of France's education system and working conditions for educators.
