A secondary outside Bordeaux was ransacked on Thursday (October 8). The vandals stole and broke equipment and lit a fire in a storage cupboard, leading to several hundred thousand euros worth of damage.
The incident comes as protests have erupted across France over an unequal, underfunded school system, overloaded timetables and extensive teacher absences.
"It is still far too early to tell you what kind of profile the individuals who acted in this way had," Public Prosecutor of Bordeaux Renaud Gaude told press.
