teaching unions called last Tuesday for a strike and to demonstrate on April 2. They demand the abandonment of the "shock of knowledge" measures, in particular the middle school level groups.
Demonstrations in Paris and several cities in France are expected. “The government is feverish and comes to force itself, in defiance of the opinion of the profession,” denounced the unions. The decree on the establishment of “groups” in mathematics and French in middle school was published on March 17 in the Official Journal.
