The Guardian view on the French school protests: the political class needs to heed the voice of students | Editorial

Protests in France have led to the disruption of schools across the country, with tens of thousands of students participating. The students are demanding better funding for the education system, which they see as underfunded and unable to meet their needs. This is a significant issue for the French economy, as a well-educated workforce is crucial for its long-term growth and competitiveness.

Why it matters

The protests are a response to an underfunded education system, and the government may need to increase spending to address the issue. This could lead to changes in the government's budget and economic policies.
