French students call for new protests after Macron meeting falls short

French students are calling for new demonstrations after saying President Emmanuel Macron's promises on education lack concrete progress. The student delegation stated Macron made clear commitments on education reforms, but they are waiting for tangible results, according to BFMTV. The protests began weeks ago among students angry about education quality, including poor school conditions and overcrowded schedules due to teacher shortages. The movement expanded into broader social unrest, with yellow vests joining. Weekend demonstrations turned violent in several places, causing destruction, looting, and arrests. Macron met with students on Friday to address their concerns, but his pledges were deemed insufficient. The students are demanding 1.5 billion euros in education investments.
