teaching unions call for strike on April 2. Demonstrations in Paris and several cities in France are expected.
Teachers' unions say they “demand the abandonment of the “shock of knowledge”” The decree on the establishment of “groups” in mathematics and French in middle school was published on March 17 in the Official Journal. “The government is feverish and comes to force itself, publishing texts, in defiance of the opinion of the profession,” denounced the unions.
