French school students have blocked schools across the country and clashed with police as protests over education cuts continue to spread, according to Al Jazeera.
The demonstrations have centered on demands for improved learning conditions, with students objecting to reductions they say are affecting classroom resources and staffing.
Blockades have been reported at multiple schools nationwide, with some protests escalating into confrontations between demonstrators and law enforcement.
French authorities had not yet detailed the scale of the response or whether any arrests were made in connection with the clashes.
The unrest adds to a broader pattern of student and labor mobilizations in France in recent years over education funding and social policy, with organizers signaling that further demonstrations could follow if their demands are not addressed.
