Education Minister Elisabeth Borne announced plans for regular bag searches in schools starting this spring, aimed at addressing the increasing number of stabbings. The searches will be conducted by police, as school staff lack the authority for such actions. She proposed stricter rules where students found with bladed weapons would have to face disciplinary councils and prosecutors will be notified. This initiative follows a recent serious stabbing incident involving a high school student in Paris and increased police presence in areas with higher crime rates.
The new policy will involve regular bag searches at schools carried out by police, as the rise in stabbings necessitates heightened security measures.
Education Minister Elisabeth Borne indicated that pupils found with bladed weapons would automatically face disciplinary hearings, coupled with mandatory notifications to prosecutors.
