Clashes in French cities as students continue to protest over education funding

Students barricaded a private school in Marseille and clashed with police at a lycée in Lille on a new day of protests across France over education funding and conditions. In Marseille, dozens of teenagers used wheelie bins and barriers to seal off the Saint-Joseph de la Madeleine school. The school, which teaches pupils from nursery to secondary level, will stay closed on Monday. In Lille, protesters smashed a bus shelter and set debris alight in front of Lycée Faidherbe. Some threw projectiles before police moved in, and smoke rose over the street.
