One week after the Île-de-France high school movement spread nationwide, a major youth mobilization took place in Tours on Tuesday, October 6, starting at the Place de la Liberté in the early afternoon. Supported by teacher unions, left-wing local officials, and political parties, students marched toward Place Jean Jaurès under sunny conditions. Thousands of people participated in what became known as Act III, a demonstration comparable in size to the intersyndical rally held on September 29, which focused on higher wages. At the front of the procession, high school and university students voiced their demands: regular replacement of absent teachers, lighter school schedules affected by the Blanquer reform, more funding for school nurses, stopping cuts to teaching positions to prevent overcrowded classes, and a plan to renovate high schools. These issues align closely with the concerns of teaching unions, explaining the convergence of different groups in the movement. Throughout the march, many banners and chants criticized the government for not responding quickly to student and high school needs. The prime minister had asked for initial decisions by the end of the month, following the launch of a web platform to collect demands. References were also made to recent confrontations with police, including calls for "Justice for Maël," a tribute to a 16-year-old who lost his right eye during clashes last Wednesday at the Prébendes area. An investigation by the IGPN is ongoing to determine responsibility, possibly involving a tear gas canister (LBD) shot. Following a tense weekend marked by protests at several high schools in Tours and the city center—where trash fires, broken windows, and looted stores were reported—authorities took extensive security measures for this demonstration. A helicopter was deployed above the procession, and the prefecture of Indre-et-Loire allowed drone use while banning items that could cause disturbances. Despite these precautions, the demonstration began relatively peacefully, except near the entrance of Rue Nationale, where a police line led to some verbal confrontations. While several shops on Tours' main commercial street closed their shutters in anticipation, this was not widespread. Notably, about fifteen businesses in the Tours area and the university had closed since Monday due to fears of damage or blockades.
