Student protests across France have led to repair costs estimated at up to one million euros for schools in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region. High school students have been gathering for more than a week to protest against the lack of teaching staff and the worsening of learning conditions. Many of the damages have occurred at the edges of the protests, with some targeting high schools specifically. The regional council of Nouvelle-Aquitaine revealed on Tuesday, October 6, the first figures regarding the damages in schools, with the cost of repairs provisionally estimated at one million euros. Regional services said they are still working to consolidate reports on the damage caused by the school blockage movement. Several high schools have been affected, including the François-Mauriac high school in Bordeaux, the high schools in Lormont and Talence in Gironde, the high schools in Bayonne and Pau in the Pyrénées-Atlantiques, as well as the Jean-Dautet and Saint-Exupéry high schools in La Rochelle. A new door at the Jean-Dautet high school, costing 30,000 euros, was damaged. The region noted that several recent renovations have taken place, mainly in the Vienne department, including the Guy-Chauvet (3 million euros) and Marc-Godrie (2 million euros) high schools in Loudun, which have undergone restructuring. The protests have been driven by concerns over the quality of education and the number of available teachers. Students are demanding better conditions and more investment in their schools. The regional council has been working closely with local authorities to assess the full extent of the damage and to plan for the necessary repairs. Several education unions have announced strikes and demonstrations on Thursday, October 8, in support of the student movement. These actions are expected to bring more attention to the issues raised by the students and may influence ongoing discussions about the state of education in the region.
