Starting in the 2027 school year, Paris and all French second-year high school students (seconde) will receive one weekly hour of artificial intelligence instruction integrated into digital science classes according to reports indexed 60.

Parisian public schools have lost 33,689 students since 2010 due to a demographic decline, with first-year primary students dropping nearly 25% since 2016 per item 60.

Over 30 school monitors in Paris were suspended since January 2026 due to suspected sexual violence, prompting the new mayor to launch a citizen convention on perischool time per item 65.

Teachers unions in Paris protested job cuts in February 2026, warning that 3,256 to 4,000 teaching positions in public education will be eliminated according to item 60.
