On Tuesday 13 October, around a hundred people, about fifty of them high school students, marched in Tulle from the Edmond-Perrier high school to Place Martial-Brigouleix, while Brive saw no protest for the second week running. Students are calling for absent teachers to be replaced, more flexible timetables and more transparency about how Parcoursup, the higher-education application platform, works. The movement is losing momentum because many students did not want to miss tests just before the All Saints' holidays. Some also feel they have been heard: forums were held in high schools to pass their demands up to the education authorities, and the ministry has brought in 3,000 substitute teachers who could start after the holidays.
