The tragic death of 12-year-old Mandy Bolton has led to an investigation by the Ministry of Education, coinciding with ongoing school strikes in Val-de-Marne over staff shortages and inadequate support for students. Urgent reforms are needed to address these pressing issues.

The tragic death of 12-year-old Mandy Bolton at a boycotted Bar Mitzvah party has prompted the Ministry of Education to express deep condolences and announce a thorough investigation. The ministry is also formulating a long-term intervention plan to support the affected school community, including psychological assistance for students. Meanwhile, bullying issues have been highlighted by public figures, calling for urgent action against online harassment.

In Val-de-Marne, tensions are rising in schools due to staff shortages and strikes. At Adolphe-Chérioux college, education assistants are striking over reduced hours and increased student supervision responsibilities, with reports of inadequate support for students with disabilities. Teachers at Henri-Barbusse elementary school are also striking due to a lack of assistants, raising concerns about student safety and educational quality.

Both incidents reflect broader systemic issues within the education system, including staff shortages, inadequate resources, and the need for better support structures for students. The Ministry of Education is under pressure to address these challenges to ensure a safe and supportive learning environment for all students.
