Paris students face two parade routes as protests continue over education reforms and funding demands.
Students split on parade routes
Students in Paris are heading toward two different parade departures, according to a report from special correspondent Johan Bodin in front of the Turgot high school. This division reflects differing strategies among student groups organizing demonstrations.Union demands education reforms
The Union Syndicale des Lycéens, at the call of Act V, continues to demand the abolition of Parcoursup, a centralized platform for higher education admissions in France. They argue that the system favors wealthier students and undermines fairness in university access.Financial demands for schools
The same student union is also pushing for a 10 billion euro plan to improve high schools. This funding would go toward modernizing infrastructure, hiring more teachers, and reducing class sizes, according to their proposals.Act V's role in the movement
Act V, a political movement advocating for student and youth rights, is supporting the Union Syndicale des Lycéens in their protests. The group has been influential in organizing demonstrations and amplifying calls for educational reform across France.
