A visit by French Education Minister Pap Ndiaye was severely disrupted Monday in Lyon. A hundred demonstrators were waiting for him in front of the building of the teacher training institute.

The police, present inside, prevented them from entering the building by firing tear gas. According to the Ministry of Education, which denies any "cancellation" of the visit, it was simply reorganized after these protesters forced an entrance to the training institute shouting "We too, we will pass in force"
