Story angles
This event does not yet have its own comparison: here is the story's Blockades and violence in French high schools and universities.
The three sides cover the same facts (blockades, violence, mobilization of headteachers, sanctions), but diverge in angle: the left insists on contested figures and the state response, the center on local incidents and dialogue, the right on order, security and public opinion.
Left
Highlights the challenge to government figures, the voices of headteachers and unions, and criticism of the state response and repression (police custody, police evictions).
Centre
Focuses on local incidents (mortars, school closures), the mobilization of headteachers and dialogue prospects, with figures and sanctions reported factually.
Right
Emphasizes violence and damage, sanctions and prison sentences, the poll on order and authority, and weariness with blockades.
Common points

- =Headteachers mobilized on November 13 in several cities against violence
- =The government wants to systematize disciplinary sanctions in case of blockades
- =Official figures on blocked high schools are contested by unions and school heads
Divergences

- ≠The right cites the poll on short prison sentences and Bardella's remarks; the left does not take them up
- ≠The left relays criticism of Lecornu's remarks on "complicity"; the right mentions them from the union angle
