In Seine-Saint-Denis, France, teachers are rallying for urgent educational reforms as the new school year begins.

The inter-union group, representing various educational unions, has highlighted ongoing deficiencies in the region's schools and is calling for a day of protest on September 10. This mobilization echoes last year's significant protests by teachers and parents, who feel their concerns have been ignored.

Meanwhile, across France, the introduction of mandatory national evaluations for primary students, including new levels CE2 and CM2, has sparked controversy.

Some unions are demanding the end of these compulsory tests, citing concerns over their impact on learning rhythms and organizational burdens.

They are also planning to join the protest on September 10, advocating for a boycott of the evaluations.
