Around 50 secondary school pupils blocked the Lycée Sophie Germain in Paris’s 4th arrondissement on Monday 2 November, with one young woman saying a pupil survey showed support for continuing the blockade daily.

She said more than 50 per cent of pupils wanted a complete blockade every day. That describes support for further action, rather than a confirmed decision to maintain it.

The account does not give the reason for the blockade or details of how the survey was conducted. It also does not establish how long the disruption will continue.
