Paris school abuse scandal grows as parents demand accountability

Prosecutors in Paris are investigating hundreds of allegations of violence and *ual abuse, including rape, involving school assistants who supervise children during breaks and after-school activities. Parents say complaints were ignored, prompting legal action and comparisons to a "MeToo moment" for France's education system. Similar cases have surfaced in Lille and elsewhere, with campaigners demanding tighter oversight of casual staff and stronger child protection laws. The Paris city council has launched a $20m action plan, while the government considers legislative reform. Al Jazeera’s Natacha Butler reports from Paris, France. Subscribe to our channel: bit.ly
