After-school violence in Paris: investigations and parents' anger

At the end of October 2026, following a scandal over violence in after-school care in Paris and elsewhere in France, parents are turning away from childcare solutions. In the following days, acts of violence are examined in Paris, facilitators at the Alleray school are suspected of sexual violence, and an investigation points to scheduling errors that may have allowed implicated facilitators to escape prosecution. In early November, the conclusions of an internal investigation at the Saint-Dominique school provoke parents' anger, while the mayors of Lyon and Toulouse call for action against this violence and parents denounce the slowness of procedures. On November 7, investigations highlight a shortage and approximate recruitment of facilitators; on November 9, parent collectives from several Paris schools call on the Paris mayor to establish responsibilities and implement a verifiable action plan.
