Overcrowded classes, cuts and precarious conditions of the school staff, students’ demonstrations being suppressed, students’ voice not being heard: those are only few of the school-related problems that France and Italy are facing nowadays. The Italian and the French school student unions call for demonstrations on the 12th of March to make school students’ voice heard!
